Dear Mister Thyssen, Thank you for understanding how vital the Iraq war is for training the US military. Previously the armed forces were limited to "play war" in exercises that were of little value. Now with real opponents they are mastering urban warfare. Our troops are rapidly becoming as savvy as the terrists. The American public cannot imagine the value this action has in developing new weapons, new tactics, and in creating highly alert leaders who can teach other troops. Your website shines as a beacon of understanding and support for my second term Presidency in which we will cut the balls off both Korea and Iran. Laura and I would be pleased to have the site admin over for dinner one of these days. Sincerely, George W. Bush PS The VP sends his "atta-boy" congrats.
