bush alarmed at rising military PERSONNEL costs.

[BOSSHOG]

old george and his band of pirates are just all beside themselves that our Soldiers and Sailors and Marines and Airmen and Coastguardmen might get a pay raise next year a half percentage more than planned:

There is also a proposal that would provide some health care benefits to reserve personnel. Hold the fucking wagon says bush. We can't have that.

BOTTOM LINE BUSH AND CHENEY AND THEIR KIND WANT TO SPEND MONEY ON BOMBS NOT PEOPLE. SUPPORTING THE TROOPS MY ASS.

1. Don't forget the $$ they ARE siphoning off into corporate profits.

That's way more important than soldiers dying for us.:eyes:

7. K&R - Could Osama do more damage to America than Bush has?

Bush has divided the country.

He's responsible for almost as many deaths of American soldiers in Iraq as Osama took on 9/11.

Bush has run up obscene debt.

He's spying on us, taking away our freedoms and liberties. He's changed the way Americans live their lives.

So who's the terrorist again? Killing in the name of Democracy doesn't change the fact that it's still killing. You can put lipstick on it, but it's still just a pig wearing lipstick.

8. Didn't Congress recently give its members a pay raise?

You know, they have cost of living expenses but we don't.
