Hillary Clinton (D-NY) has already started her 2008 presidential campaign by aligning herself with the military and pretending to be tough on terror. Fortunately, the ultra-liberal Hillary has yet to brainwash “all” of the voting public into believing that her symbolism is substance. This is the same person who as co-president for eight years was quoted as saying: "I loathe the military."
The picture shows that this soldier has been thru Survival School and learned his lessons well. He's giving the sign of "coercion" with his left hand. The use of hand signs and other signals of duress are taught in survival school to be used by POW's as a method of passing messages back to our intelligence services who may view the photo or video. This guy was obviously being coerced into shaking hands with Hillary Clinton. It's ironic she was unaware that he would try to inform us about the photo---perhaps because she's never understood our military to begin with.
While on the subject of Iraq, and if you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraqi theater of operations during the last 22 months, and that we have experienced a total of 2112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000. The firearm death rate in Washington D.C. is 80.6 per 100,000. That means that an unarmed peaceful citizen is about 33% more likely to be shot and killed in our Nation's Capitol (which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation), than is an armed soldier in Iraq.
Obvious conclusion: We should immediately pull out of Washington.
