What part of their mission is a crock of crap, Chuck?

************

The part where the military is used as an economic tool for private
profits rather than a national defense force. That part. See Iraq, the
non-retaliation for 9-11, the not-so-intense hunt for Osama bin Ladin,
the no bid-no competitition-bottomless blank check to Dick Cheney's
boardroom pals for support and supply in Iraq-(but that's OK, we won't
include those expenditures in the budget, and the folks who are heart
and soul behind Bush either won't notice, or won't care).

We have become a laughing stock.

Take our great "ally", Pakistan.

Guess what the most popular first name for boy babies has been in
Pakistan, ever since 9-11? "Osama". We just sold them a ton of
extremely advanced aircraft- (enough to upset India). Bush is being
hoodwinked in the Arab bazaar, and the con is so complete he thinks
he's scoring victories. The net result of all this expense and
sacrifice will not turn out to be as advertised. (Then somebody will
blame that on the Democrats, of course).

The Commander in Cheat sends our troops on some missions with
disgraceful motives, but that doesn't make the men and women who serve
disgraceful.
