Tom More has a refreshing answer to Karl Rove's battle plan.
The war in Iraq has stretched our military too thin to deal with existing or emerging threats elsewhere, and has put an entire generation of military families into grave economic peril. Many of these people can't pay their mortgages, buy their children clothing, afford medical care, afford food, pay car notes, or credit card bills. And yet the administration and the Republican Congress continue to cut veterans' benefits, continue to extend the tours of servicemen and reservists, and still refuse to tell the American people when the troops can come home. How long will we continue to put up with this? How long before another enemy decides to test us? How long can we maintain a broken military? How can we continue to ask our military families to sacrifice so bravely while the rest of us sacrifice nothing?
