I wish the politicians would give the devil dogs enough ammo, fuel and food, then turn them loose so they can do what they are trained for and get this war over with.
Then get their buts back home for good.Comment

AUSTIN — The Department of Defense says two Texas National Guard soldiers are dead from a roadside bomb attack on their vehicle in Afghanistan.
The military says Staff Sgt. Chris N. Staats, of Fredericksburg, 32, and Spc. Anthony G. Green, of Matthews, N.C., 28, were assigned to the 143rd Infantry Detachment at Camp Mabry. The military says the attack happened Friday.
Chief Master Sgt. Gonda Moncada, Texas National Guard spokeswoman at Camp Mabry, says the soldiers deployed to Afghanistan a year ago and were scheduled to return home in about a month.
