Devoted to women of color in business

That said, I am in shock and awe that we've now spent $426 billion http://www.costofwar.com and counting on the war in Iraq, but the military bloggers tell us personal armor is not adequate http://armyofdude.blogspot.com, and the veterans who return are not getting the support they need http://www.soldiervoices.net

Hey Congress! Allocate the dollars to support our troops and get us out of there. 

I understand that the bandwidth usage is too much and there could be compromised evidence and national security issues disclosed by the blogging and the videos, but come on. How many more excuses can we come up with? Let's get real. YouTube and MySpace provide a direct link to our servicemembers on the front lines. Our servicemembers share their daily world with us. They keep in touch with mom and dad, siblings, aunts and uncles, friends and family on these sites. 

Maybe if we, the American people, see more of the truth, we'll start demanding some real accountability for our sons and daughters, nieces and nephews, mothers and fathers on the front lines. Maybe we'll want our loved ones home safe and sound on a speeded up timetable. Maybe that's what the DoD is trying to stop.

That said, I know there are enough of our military who are using their hard-fought right to freedom of speech to share with us their opinions, using non-DoD networks to post on their blogs and upload videos. http://www.milblogging.com/
