U.S. Shows Compassion; Iraq Doesn't

I don't think anyone ever doubted that the U.S.coalition would prevail over the Iraqi army. I guess in most people's minds it was more a question of how long it would take. The more I watched the coverage on the television, the more apparent it became to me that our forces truly are well-trained and well-intentioned. I watched one of our soldiers carrying on his back an injured Iraqi soldier. The U.S.soldier was carrying the Iraqi away to receive medical treatment. I watched U.S.troops gingerly avoid destroying a mosque where a number of Iraqi soldiers had holed up.The Iraqis were firing at our soldiers. It would have been really easy for our boys to call for an air strike and level the place. Instead, they risked life and limb to secure the mosque without destroying it. I watched U.S.troops drop to one knee and point their weapons to the ground when confronted by angry civilians who thought the troops were going to storm a mosque.

Souder received 80 percent of the Kosciusko County vote in the last election."It's not easy to get people to turn out when you're getting 80 percent of the vote," the Grabill native said in his rapid-fire manner."I'm used to close races.It's amazing people even stay engaged." The congressman said he has more of a fight in other counties."Here, you don't have the Democrats to blame for problems." He said northeast Indiana tends to vote for governors who are not a "wholly owned subsidiary of Indianapolis.At least Gov.Daniels can say the Democrats have had this 16 years now.It will take time to fix things." Souder said the Senate has been challenged to reform Social Security, told to get courageous and make the move to privatization.
