Our National Gurad isn't capable?

Seems to me they do heroic stuff in Iraq..what's wrong with doing that in NO?

And why are you keeping this soooo quiet?

Don't you want people to know how "your system works".?

2. The tie-in
is the DeVos family of Amway. Blackwater is owned by Eric Prince brother of Betsy, wife of Dick DeVos son of Amway founder and now CEO. Betsy was past GOP chair in MI. Billionaire moneybags for Bush.

6. Training
For the day true Americans become totally fed up with being shoveled shit for the money they invest in what was once a great country and take to the streets in revolt. These will be the frontline defense for the organized crime bosses of the PNAC.
