Randi Rhodes Is Tearing Shrub and Co
a new orface. As well she should. The horror of what is going on over there...soldiers not being paid, no armor, lousy food, tainted fuel, scrounging for armor plating for their vehicles, inferior helmets.
There have been over 10,000 wounded, but they have no health insurance and the list goes on.

This is a freakin nightmare and it's only gonna get worse for those guys.
This is just insane.

:grr: :mad:

1. "...it's only going to get worse for those guys"
And as long as the military blindly follows this administration and the orders it issues to commit genocide, they have no one to blame but themselves.

Themselves, and those that voted to re-elect this amoral man and his cronies.

In other words, it's not my fault, or Clinton's

2. * is recruiting Nat'l Guard cuz the gov won't have to pay med bills
Nat'l guard has less benefits than regular military. So, Nat'l Guard don't get prosthetics etc.

5. Just think of the worst shithole in Iraq....
Edited on Thu Dec-09-04 04:53 PM by LaPera
And you'll soon find Guardsman Thomas Wilson in the middle of it...You have the nerve to even talk to ME --you piece of shit -take that bitch-- Rummy knows how to keep order.

That's why Fredo hasn't fired Rummy...Fredo knows Dumsfeld will bitch slap the shit out of him too...

Rummy's a sick Natural Born Killer--He loves death & killing.

7. The administration likes to boast of the US as a superpower, etc.
and pays lip service to the troops, everyone is supposed to support the troops, BUT they still can't properly supply the troops with the stuff they need? If it were the priority they claim it is, it would have been done long ago.

They didn't waste any time with Halliburton contracts, etc. But proper equipment for the troops....well we're working on that. Things take time.

Just like in other wars, the war profiteers make a bundle. While the folks who put their lives on the line make do as best they can. Plastic turkeys and "pep talks" from the suits don't cut it.
