I'm sure I am not alone in having a bad feeling about the way Staff Sergeant Robert Bales is being treated. Hypothetically, if a man were to crack after four consecutive deployments, who should be to "blame?" Are we pushing troops past the brink of sanity and then holding them accountable for it? Imagine having to live in mortal danger when your commander-in-chief has already surrendered (by planning to exit by 2014.)
