I am beginning to think Bush should be impeached. How can he allow
such shameful medical treatment of brave men (and women, though they
don't belong there) wounded in battle? Is this how America thanks
those who gave the most? The Democrats should sieze the issue and
run
with it. Forget about Gonzalez and Rove, they are just diversions.
The
Democrats should really show they support the troops through
immediate
action.

Please, everyone write letters to your Senators and Congressman. We
can't discard and abuse those who defend America.

Nathan, you are a walking, talking contradiction. On the one hand you
say we can't discard and abuse those who defend American and on the
other hand you side with Democrats who are actively talking about
defunding the military.
On the one hand you talk about impeaching the President
(Commander-in-Chief) and on the other hand you say you cant' discard
those who defend America. Is the Commander-in-Chief not defending
America? It seems to me he's aggressively pursuing the war against
Islamic Fascist Terrorists while his Democrat predecessor was more
concerned with actively running and hiding from terrorists attacks.
On the one hand, you claim wounded veterans are getting shameful
treatment while on the other hand you belittle female veterans who can
be and often are wounded as badly as male soldiers.
America does plenty to thank those who are wounded in the service to
their country. But, you cannot expect perfection in ANY government run
institution and military hospitals are no exception. While it is
unfortunate there is so much red tape and so much waiting and
bureaucracy wounded soldiers have to put up with, it is a fact of
life.
If soldiers weren't getting treatment that would be a severe
indictment
of military hospitals but they are getting treatment. This recent
scandal, like most everything else lately is just another political
football. Military hospitals just didn't suddenly start having
excessive
bureaucracy and aging buildings during the current administration.
It's
all been going on for years and years and the lack of funding by the
previous Democrat administration is more to blame than anything the
current administration has done.
So, get your head out of your ass, there Nathan. Try to think for
yourself and don't fall for everything you hear or read on the
left-wing
media outlets. I know it's hard for Viet Nam era Vets to be grounded
in
reality but you should try. You cannot go around forever like that
"threw my medals over the fence" whiner, John Kerry. You have to grow
a
pair and stop blaming everybody for everything.

I am trying to motivate people to step up to the plate and get things
done. I don't care if it is Democrat or Republican, there is a job to
be done and a horrible wrong to be righted. The buck stops on Bush's
desk, he has the ultimate authority. If the Democrats constantly claim
to support the troops and are so pro-veteran why is nothing getting
done? They have control of Congress, yet they don't have the spine to
immediately withdraw nor do they have the compassion to help our brave
wounded veterans. I stand by what I say, women don't belong in combat.
We should bring back the draft rather than putting women in harm's
way. The Republicans are very, very bad but even with Bush's approval
rating at 30% the Democrats barely got control of Congress. Do you
know why? Because they are and it seems always will be much worse than
the Republicans. They now have the opportunity to make a difference,
demonstrate excellence and all they do is petty political fighting.
The want to tear Bush down, why can't they demostrate through action
that they can do better? Where has the eternal optimism and idealism
of Ronald Reagan gone? I'm for Mitt Romney. He seems to be an
optimist, is tall and handsome and his wife is stunning. That man will
best represent America. He has it all, a Mormon running the liberal
bilge state of Massachussetts. He appeals to everyone and represents
all the good possible in America. I will be priveleged to vote for the
man.
Nathan
Sorry, Nathan, but Romney is just another idiot with a pretty wife. Read
this and see for yourself.
