"Very popular war president"? Bushit. Here's why he is going down..

Do you support the troops? For months, this phrase was used to silence peaceniks and drum up support for the war in Iraq. Keep it squarely in mind, for this same phrase may very well be the battle cry that unseats George W. Bush in 2004.

1. Oh MY God....
I had no idea they were cutting combat pay and family separation allowance that much. I'm truly shocked. I have no words....

5. That certainly is a defeatist attitude
Why are you hear if you're so willing to roll over and surrender. What are you doing to help bring this issue to light? We have over a year to convince enough states and the media that this gives them the ability to steal the election. GET BUSY!

4. I actually read on another thread
that combat pay for a soldier is $225 per month. They were actually going to lower that to $175 (correct?).

I can't imagine putting my life on the line, each and every day for $225 bucks. And what's worse, is that soldier might have a mortgage payment back home, or a car payment which he can't make. His house might get foreclosed on, as long as he's in Iraq.

Truly, Truly pit vipers these men are. There are no words for what they're doing. I hope they all get a vacation, and don't come back.

7. Tip of the Iceberg...
much more will come out as the election nears.

Besides the cut in military pay, the VA gets a funding cut, retirees may have to purchase their own meds, and what's left of the old "GI Bill" will be swallowed up.

The National Park system has become the payoff for timber, oil, gas and energy companies.

EPA dismantled.

OSHA dismantled.

Clean Air Act rescinded.

Clean Water Act overturned.

Patriot I & Patriot II

No matter how you cut it...this is the worst administration ever, and by far, the worst president of all time.

To be honest, I NEVER thought that this could happen in our country. To retain Liberty, one must indeed, remain eternally vigilant.

:grr:
