I spent my thanksgiving at my brother in law's sister's house in new hampshire. his sister in law's husband served time in iraq for a little less than a year and came back home last week tuesday. he told me the us soldiers are making progress and vast majority of them are pro-bush. i just thought it was interesting. we also talked about the media's lack of coverage on the progress and that they exaggerate the bad news in order to boost their ratings. as sick as that may seem, i find it to be true. i guess i should stand by and trust that things are peachy over there like he said, afterall he was the one who gained experience and outlook of the war, not me and certainly not the media, i dont think.

although i admire the us soldiers for sacrificing themselves for others to live a better life, he was a little miffed when i told him that i thought the bush administartion doesn't really care about rebuilding and spreading democracy in iraq and that the war was only for their own interests business-wise. bush only uses these "spreading democracy" talks as an excuse of being in iraq.

the bush speech this wedensday should be inneresting
