This thing, the wheels are coming off it.
- Gen. Barry McCaffrey, after returning from an
inspection of Iraq, 08/12/2005.
They are sunburned and storm-lashed. They sleep in
tents that sit along the muddy earth of drainage
ditches by the side of the road. They have been
heckled by "counter-demonstrators" who chanted "We
don't care!" during a rendition of "God Bless
America." They have been attacked by fire ants and
hassled by local health inspectors. On Thursday
morning, at about 5:30am, they were blasted awake by a
fourteen-car convoy of Secret Service SUVs which
roared through the camp at high speed while leaning on
their horns the whole time.
They have been jolted with fear when a local
resident fired his weapon into the air several times
to make them go away. When the shooter, one Larry
Mattlage, was asked why he was firing his gun, he
said, "We're going to start doing our war and it's
going to be underneath the law. We're going to do
whatever it takes." It is safe to say, therefore, that
their lives have been threatened.
The thing is, they've already won.
