Congress nickel and diming the troops...

[SykkBoy]

This is the reason I had a problem going into Iraq in the first place...

GW gets his rah-rah and looks like a hero for "liberating" the Iraqis and meanwhile the troops get shafted.

Is this what GW meant about supporting our troops? So, if we questioned involvement in this war, we were considered traitors and we weren't suporting our troops...and then this happens.

I hope the relatives of all of those soldiers DYING for another country's people remember this shit on election day. Granted induvidually, we're not talking about a large amount of money, but it's the principal.

This is a TYPICAL pattern our government seems to have against our troops.

Interesting I was supporting my troops by doing some volunteer work at the local VA clinic (what a joke and travesty that clinic is...sicne it's now spread out inot various retail centers since the original was condemned by the building inspector) and these guys could barely get any help at all and staff who were there were rude, incompetant and overworked.

I've supported my fucking troops and I'd expect our government to do the same.

If you haven't already, write, fax and email your congressman about this assfucking our troops are getting. Register to vote and let them know you are a REGISTERD VOTER and won't stand for this shit.

Fuck, now I need to go take a Valium........
