So Chimpo is hosting wounded warriors at his Crawford ranch, is he?

Sitting here in a nice little hamburger place I go to occasionally, and who shows up on the TV screen (CNN) but The Chimp! It's something about hosting some kind of biking event for veterans, especially those suffering from PTSD. Seems to me it's the least he could do -- it's his fault!

Here's more:

Then chimp is going to read "My Pet Goat" to them. Viewing his paintings was ruled cruel and inhumane treatment. Reports are paintings are enroute to Gitmo to replace water-boarding.

if little Bushie had to scrub the floors and the bedpans at Walter Reed. That is how he should be serving these men and women whose injuries he is responsible for.

I received a phone call from some organization claiming to benefit homeless and wounded vets. The caller was persistent that needed to support them with a rather sizable sum. When I told him I couldn't help out at this time, he kept becoming more and more forceful and his tone of voice was getting more agitated. I finally told him that maybe he should call Cheney and bu$h as they were the ones who put these veterans in the places they are with their needless wars.

Call me and then get belligerent because I can't help at this time, my ass!

So maybe he listened.

Watching CNN's interview of Bush on his organized bike ride for wounded Iraq and Afghanistan war vets in which he says "I feel honored to have served with them".

"I feel honored to have served with them" !!!!!!!!!!!!!
