The first clue of "caring" is that our troops, Reservists and National Guard, in Iraq have crappy equipment, lousy body and equipment armor, ill-prepared, out-of-condition both mentally and physically, and their stays are way beyond reasonable and prudent! Putting your life on the line in Iraq is a cheap trick perpetrated by George W. Bush and His Lackeys.
Besides. These guys are trained to
kill not to play city cop and "good guy." Talk about twisted. It's "schitzo!"
And you say it's a "serious question" about some stupid inauguration? Nah, I disagree. BTW, corporate America is paying the bulk of the money for this inauguration. They are buying their way into the Oval Office. This, too, is not new. However, maybe the quantity of it is somewhat new.
One more aside. Are you aware that there's a new Bush *policy* now in effect about our American forces in Iraq? Yup. Now they are trained in "how to speak and behave w/ the news media." This, of course, occurred after that-soldier-who-told-Rummy-that-troops-were-using-HillBilly-armor-procured-from-the-dump! Allegedly, his question was authored by the "news media!"
