The administration claims to support the troops yet refused to get the needed body armor and armor vehicles until the press had to report how bad the situation was. (Even now our men are not armed and protected to the best of our ability.)

No... just no. There is not a single Hummer in Iraq that isn't armored anymore. The closest to it are the Medical Hummers, and those are relegated by the Geneva Convention so we can't. I dont know where you're getting your information, but ask some of those you talk to in the hospital that got back within the last 6months.

When the soldiers do get home those that were injured are treated badly and find that the VA hospitals are just meat plants where they do just enough to get the soldier out and home but offer very little assistance, aftercare and therapy.

Once again... no. VA hospitals are amazing places, I dont know how yours is ran but I've been amongst them all my life. People are even going back to war now missing limbs because of the great service and their belief in the war.

Right. Just like when we were told that anyone who refuses to see a movie starring Alec Baldwin or Sean Penn is "against the right of free speech."

People pay to see Alec Baldwin or Sean Penn?
