Why I Hate Donald Rumsfeld

If American soldiers are found wearing Dragon Skin- an alternative to military-issued body armor--even if they purchased it with their own funds-- if they are killed or wounded while wearing Dragon Skin, the government has refused to honor GI death benefits or pay for the Veteran's health care.
Dragon Skin is said to be the most reliable body armor in the world.
The Pentagon doesn't give a fuck about the safety of the soldiers they send off to battle.
Some lobbyist for some shittier brand of body armor made a backroom deal with the Pentagon- and it's all about the money, honey.
Donald Rumsfeld cares as much about our military as the Taliban does.
May he get everything he deserves...in Hell.

I wish Cindy Sheehan would glom onto the Dragon Skin scandal.
This issue needs to be in the news daily until the Pentagon supplies Dragon Skin armor to every American soldier in the field.
It's the least those chickenhawk sons of bitches could do.

I brought it up a couple of months ago..but I only got two readers..but yes, its disgusting and should be circulated more. They are giving the soldiers letters warning them of this before they ship out..fuckers.

I could get roasted for this, but Cindy ain't doing a whole lot of anything. I take nothing away from her,I am just saying..

U Thant (love the name)
I think that's an excellent idea for a blog. Once you set it up, come back and tell us about it and we'll link you up.

Here's my question:

"Mr. President, there have been many allegations over the years that you have used cocaine, marijuana and other illegal drugs.
Are you now or have you ever used illegal substances?"

As for Cindy Sheehan, I agree, Dusty, she isn't much of a verbal force against the war.
I think her rather plain appearance and simple words have served as a symbol of the thousands of mothers who've lost children in Iraq.
A speechwriter wouldn't hurt.

Hey..speaking of Cindy,you heard she's back at the "Ranch" right?

This is what I think she does best.

She is a pretty effective camper/protester.
More power to her.

I had no idea you were so devout!

Karen Zipdrive said...

Bushism as a cult...ya know, I hate to say it but his lemmings' adoration for him does sort of defy reason.

Who's Lulu calling devout?

Unknown said...

I was wondering who our dear Lulu was calling devout also..and a devout what? :P
