Bush `troubled' by care for wounded soldiers
PROBE ORDERED; ARMY SECRETARY RESIGNS
By Ron Hutcheson and Chris Adams
McClatchy Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON - In more fallout from reports of appalling conditions at the Army's top medical facility, Army Secretary Francis Harvey resigned Friday and President Bush announced a far-reaching investigation into the quality of health care for wounded soldiers.

Bush said he would appoint a bipartisan commission to examine the treatment of wounded military personnel ``from the time they leave the battlefield through their return to civilian life.'' He said he was ``deeply troubled'' by reports of substandard care at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center, where some recuperating veterans complained of being neglected and left in moldy, deteriorating facilities.

10. I'll bet he's "troubled"...
...this must be the same outrage that he experienced when he "discovered"
that Valerie Plame was outed. Junior was troubled AND upset!

...this must be the same cry for justice that we heard when he discovered
that "Brownie" wasn't doing a great job for the Katrina victims. Boy,
was Junior troubled then, too!

...this must be the same shock and horror that Junior displayed when
he discovered the torture which happened at Abu Graib. Oh, boy...talk
about troubled!

...this must be the same indignation that Junior showcased when we realized
that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq! Junior was
reallly "troubled" to discover that he received "bad intelligence". Poor
little troubled fella...

Wow. So much failure and devastation swirling around Junior, and every
time he's so surprised by it all! He's either the most incompetent,
oblivious buffoon that ever lived--or he's a pathological liar.

Either way, America loses--big time. That's what's REALLY troubling.

12. That's it? He's "troubled"?
I'm troubled when my supermarket runs out of my favorite flavor of ice cream. Doesn't he have a stronger sentiment that he can express, other than describing a feeling of mild inconvenience or annoyance?

15. Yeah, he "sounded" troubled on his radio address (played on tonight's news).
As in he has trouble reading what someone else wrote for him to sound troubled.

Funny how he never found the time to "photo-op" at that location.


Then we see the Assclown goofin' it up with kids in Alabama on a cell phone.


:mad:

He's a disgrace to mankind.

Republicans always have to be "concerned" about something, you know.

26. Yep, cover up is about all he's good for and he's really not very good at that.
he is the most ill-suited person to ever hold a position of leadership. I have more leadership qualities in one drop of my sweat and thats not saying much, than he has in his whole existence. Impeach now 'cause time is running out, methinks
