Does Bush really support the troops?

If you look into Bush's eyes you can see little distorted dollar signs.

The only ones that Bush & Co. support are greedy corporations and billionaires.

Let's give those greedy corporations yet another huge tax cut this year.

He, nor any of his supporters, give one iota about the well being of our troops, but they sure get the quivers, when they think of all the money that our troops will be providing their over-bloated pocket books.

Thank you Mr. Bush & Co.

.

First of all there are holes all in your argument...watch a lot of CNN do ya? I will give you the correct answer to each of your points.

1. they were lied to about the reasons for the war: The Soldiers were never lied to, as neither was Congress...Bush was using the same Intel that Clinton had...if it was faulty, part of the blame is with ol Bill...

2. they were inadequately supplied with body armour, Humvees and other necessities: This steamed from the 8 years under the Clinton Administration...he continually cut funding on all parts of the military...after 8 years of a low budget, it takes a while to catch up...

3.there are no official ceremonies in recognition of soldiers killed in battle: I guess you do not know any soldiers killed in battle...I have lost 13 friends since the beginning of this, and they are recognized just like all soldiers killed in combat are...just because CNN or the Cobert Report does not show it, does not mean it does not happen.

4. injured soldiers are being made to pay for their own treatment and recovery: This my dear is a bald face lie...I work for an Army hospital and was in the Army for 14 years and I can asure you that soldiers DO NOT have pay for any part of their medical treatment...now if you are talking about the dental benefits that Clinton cut for our family memebers, then you would ge right...

5. Bush wanted to cut the pay to soldiers in Iraq, taking away their immiment danger pay and family separation allowance: Once again you do not know any soldiers...the immiment danger pay and family separation pay was raised from $250 each in 02 to $450 each...it is just being put back where it was...because many, many of the soldiers in Iraq are really not in any danger...I can tell you one thing the soldiers are not complaining...especially the ones that served under Clinton...the pay now is great....please do you research before you post nonsense...The Daily Show and Cobert Reports are COMEDY SHOWS....

Professional soldiers do not need your protection. Think what you want about the war and its implications, professional soldiers do not need your protection. They don't require the truth be told to them, or anything be told to them for that matter. They have the best equipment in the world, far and beyond anything anyone else has access to. Body armor is not perfect and Humvee were never intended to be armored vehicles. Those shortcomings are direct failures of military command.. not the president of the united states. Official ceremonies are not given to deceased soldiers out of respect for the dead and privacy for the living... a long standing rule that predates the current administration. Individual cases of injustice towards the disabled and injured ARE terrible. Imminent danger pay and family separation allowance have not been removed.

Yes.

Yes I have reasons.

I'm not going to waste my time listing them for a Bush basher posting a list of bogus statements using left wing liberal sources and doesn't really care what my reasons are anyway.

But for some of you other people that may be curious here is a list of but a few of my reason;

Initiated a comprehensive review of our military, which was completed just prior to 9/11/01, and which accurately reported that ASYMMETRICAL WARFARE capabilities were critical in the 21st Century.

Pushed through THREE raises for our military. Increased military pay by more than $1 billion a year.

Prohibited putting U.S. troops under U.N. command.

Earmarked at least 20 percent of the Defence procurement budget for next-generation weaponry.

Increased defence research and development spending by at least $20 billion from fiscal 2002 to 2006.

Ordered a comprehensive review of military weapons and strategy.

Ordered renovation of military housing. The military has already upgraded about 10 percent of its inventory and expects to modernise 76,000 additional homes this year.

Brought back our EP-3 intel plane and crew from China without any bribes or bloodshed.

TitusPul: No by no ability wounded, yet so what? Served USN, college EW, thats mega death circumstances. you will desire to learn what the definition of carpet bombing is in the previous utilising arms. i became unaware that carpet bombing became unique in basic terms to B-52s, and that i've got self assurance the USAF is likewise unaware of your assessment, sir. and that i'm no longer antisemetic: And made no antisemetic fact, besides the indisputable fact which you apparently do no longer understand what Israel did to the liberty? ultimately one great gripe is that the Iraqi people would desire to step as much as the plate does that make some anti-Iraqi? So if the Israeli's are utilising us as proxies and that's recommended does that make one anti-semetic? No, am no longer a liberal. via the way, why are we in Iraq? i'm able to tell truthfully, besides the indisputable fact that this is of no challenge to me, truly what concerns me is our very own government. i think of revolution is a robust element now and then?

According to those I have talked to in The Air Force

he does,& visits often and talks with them,not just to

them. You don't support our troops,because if you did

you'd support our President & the United States Military.

You don't like the troops,& if you had it your way,America

wouldn't have any troops to defend herself with!

I really hope you get a taste of your own medicine soon!!!

Your sources are all far left-wing media hacks! I've seen some of your answers and I don't believe for a minute you even know anybody in the military. You should be ashamed of your anti-American slant on the world.

Bush only supports Bush's agenda

Yes, he has never lied to the troops as do the libs 24/7.

Y E S

Why is it that those accusing the president of lying are the ones spreading false information themselves?
