Please don't misunderstand what I am saying.  I respect people in the military.  In fact, I would like to get some military training, but I don't want to put the time or dedication into going into the US military.  I respect what they do.  I do not think they are fighting for my freedom.  In fact, I am not exactly sure what they are fighting for.  Of course, this isn't the individual soldier's fault - it is the decision maker's fault.  Anyway, questioning the use of the military is a very democratic action.  The military is a tool owned by the people.  I vote, so I have the right to speak out when the military is misused.  The highest ranking officer in the military is a civilian (the President) and this was designed as a symbol of who controls the military by the Framers.  As far as what should we do now?  I am kinda of the Colin Powell leaning.  The US broke it the US bought it.
