AUGH!!! "i dont care why Kerry voted against spending more money on..
"I don't care WHY he voted against it. The fact remains that he voted to send our young men and women into war and then refused them the equipment they needed to fight the war. I don't care WHAT his reason was. He should fight the tax cut on its own sake, he shouldn't leave our men and women w/out the resources they need."


AAUUGGHH.....
i told this repug that
"seems to me they should have had the equipment when they went, not after they got there. There also should have been some planning done, like... an exit strategy!! Why was the president going to veto the first bill if this was SO important? Threatening to veto because the top 1% don't get the tax cut is pretty lame and show priorities.
Why didn't the first bill pass? why aren't there commercial talking about bush threatening to veto the bill?"

and she said

"Yes, this would have been the ideal. However, this does not negate the fact that some voted against funding troops that were currently in harms way."



lol they just drive me crazy!!!

1. Be sure to tell her that Bush voted to veto the bill if it didn't include
everything he wanted. Meaning, he too would have left the troops w/o needed supplies. All that aside, troops still do not have all that is needed because of Halliburton.

3. Tell her how Bush is 'supporting' the troops
by cutting combat pay, cutting aid to military dependents, making sure Guardsmen and Reservists returning home have only 30 days of health care, how he's making wounded soldiers pay for their meals in the hospital-and see what kind of excuse she comes up with.
