Who's doing this to the soldiers Irate? Who?

Yes, you say you seperate yourself from Bush over this, but I can not think of a more important subject than the protection of our country and the military is that.

Bush is freaking threatening to veto help for our men, yet Haliburton gets whatever they need.

Overcharge for fuel? No problem, pay the company.

Charge for items that you have not provided the military with? No problem, pay the company.

Healthcare for our troops? Yeah right can't afford it.

Equal pay to reservists? Hell no, it'll bring down morale of the troops.

Make sure they have their jobs when they get home? Can't do that.

I have shown proof that is exactly what the administration is saying to the proud men and women, who are willing to die for freedom and every man woman and child in this country.

I am not trying to be partisan (like I said no matter who was president, I would find this beyond contempt). I am just posting facts and reacting to them. Yes, I hate Bush, and yes, this adds fuel.

In all honesty, every single one of us should be ashamed of ourselves for allowing this to happen. THIS ISN'T A PARTISAN THING THIS IS A TRUE PATRIOTIC, AMERICAN THING. (Although, I know a few of you will make sure it becomes partisan. Again, I say, it's Bush doing this, NOT THE DEMS, NOT THE SENATE GOP (obviously enough of them had to vote yes to Durbin's bill to get it through). BUSH is doing this, with some help in the House.

Without men to work the weapons, it doesn't matter what weapons we have, they are useless.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
