BALAD AIR BASE, Iraq (AP) - The airplane is the size of a jet fighter, powered by a turboprop engine, able to fly at 300 mph and reach 50,000 feet. It's outfitted with infrared, laser and radar targeting, and with a ton and a half of guided bombs and missiles.

The Reaper is loaded, but there's no one on board. Its pilot, as it bombs targets in Iraq, will sit at a video console 7,000 miles away in Nevada.

The full report is on the Drudge Report.  No cockpit window looks strange, but she is a real beauty. With more and more of these drones, we will be able to save many lives in combat. The troops will be doing a lot of clean up action. I love it. They didn’t say exactly when they would be put in use, but they plan on using them in Iraq. I bet they are there now. I’d like to see a demonstration. Bet it’s awesome.  I love technology and we are the best. Way to go, USA.

I guess by now, everyone has heard about The Islamic Radical friends of the Devil, who are torturing little children, killing them in horrific ways, baking them and serving the children to their parents and forcing the parents to eat their cooked children. The first time I heard this I couldn't believe my ears. When I realized it was true, I became very sick to my stomach and had to regurgitate. I am gulping as I type this now.

These devils must be stopped. We are the only power who will confront them and eventually put them in the ground where they belong. We must prevail or they will come after us and do the same thing. We should not be politically correct while conducting this war. We must wreak havoc so powerful as to put them on their knees begging for mercy.
They do not deserve mercy. How could a human being think of something so horrific to do to another human being, especially children?  Have we become so numb by Hollywood blood and guts in so many movies that we can no longer cry or feel grief for the tortured innocent.  Why do you look for excuses for this evil? What part of evil do you want to befriend? Why are we not shouting from our rooftops?

To say this is not our war is wrong. We are compelled by humanity to stop this reign of terror. For us to walk away and allow these devils to continue their hellish actions would be a grave mistake and a sin against humankind. I beg for a miracle and hope the war turns against the evil ones, so as to send a message to any other evil doers that they will not be tolerated on the face of this good earth.

This is the real inconvenient truth, not Al Gore's Traveling Medicine Show.

How long has World War II been over, yet, we are still in Germany. This new generation of immediate gratification, has no patience and will find they make many mistakes by not thinking past the moment.

I think they should cordon off areas and have the people leave through a specific checkpoint. Of course most terrorists will not use that means of passage for  fear of  being identified as a terrorists, so they will hide out. Once the general population has left, then I would bomb the area back to the stone age. Once the terrorists dead bodies were removed, I would start a new rebirth for that area of the country. Everything would be brand new and designed how they would like to see it exist in a free country. I would have the people helping in the reconstruction of their new town so they could have a sense of pride and ownership in their town. I would do this in each and every town in Iraq. Methodically and systematically remove the 'scourge' and set the Iraqi people free in a new world.

For a short period of time, a few years, the Iraqi people would be living in tent cities. That is a small price for them to pay for a brand new city, modern conveniences, and a brand new, free world they can enjoy.

Not to sound biased, but the Democrats are the biggest flip-floppers. No matter what Bush says or does, they are opposed to it, even when he has changed his mind and gone along with what the Democrats say they believe. When Bush goes along with the Democrats, they conveniently change their minds and spout another idea. I do not believe there is any pleasing the Democrats even when they get their way, so what do they really want? I don't understand .

I am not defending Bush so much as I am questioning the Democrats. Can you please make a statement and stick to it? I need to know what you are really about to know if I can agree with you. In case you readers don't know what I mean, here is just one example:

Both parties voted to send the military to Iraq. Then Democrats (on the record), en masse stated Bush did not send enough troops to get the job done. Now that Bush is sending in more troops, the Democrats are complaining that Bush is sending in more troops to be killed and it will not get the job done.

I am confused.
