Can we talk about facts again?

The Bush(whacked) administration supports the troops, and the Liberals don’t support the troops because they’re the ones trying to get the troops OUT of Iraq…

At least that’s the way the fuzzy-logic works with this administrtion.

Two things in the last few days are perfect examples of how much this administration “supports”the troops…

First, from the Associated Press comes word that two Army combat brigades are skipping the usual desert training session. Essentially the troops are being rushed into service by Bush's decision to escalate, thus not giving them the opportunity to train at the premier Desert-training range in California and instead will make their final preparations at their home bases… what this means is the troops will be forgoing training in a desert setting that was designed specifically to prepare troops for the challenges they’ll face in Iraq and instead will end their training without going through any desert drills.

Nice… nothing like on the job training that could kill…

The other example is the fact that close to 90% of Army National Guard Units are rated “not ready” because of shortfalls in billions of dollars worth of equipment. Thus jeopardizing their ability to respond to crises at home and abroad.

Why don’t they have the equipment? Because Bush has the military so-thinned out, that the supplies and equipment can’t be made, ordered, shipped quick enough… and this has been going on since the war started; witnessed by accounts of soldiers not having the proper equipment (body armor, socks, etc) who then have to result to either buying the gear themselves or relying on people at home to send it to them. Or the widely known item that a lot of the military vehicles being used don’t have the proper armor plating installed.

And yet it’s Liberals who don’t support and care for our troops… how incredibly inane is that sentiment?

This administration has often shown its discourse for the people in the military… they don’t mind using it to erase past mistakes of daddy… but they don’t dare support or help the troops themselves.

And it’s not like I’m being facitous, there’s plenty of evidence to support this; witness the deplorable conditions at Walter Reed… or the Bush(whacked) Administration not allowing a disabled Vet appear at a White House media function because they didn’t want the media to see his legs had been blown off in Iraq.

And yet it’s Liberals who don’t support and care for our troops because we want to get them out of Iraq…

The media needs to stop feeding the beast that Liberals are against the troops and conservatives are for them…

It’s the exact opposite…
