[rodeodance]

he says

[rodeodance]

1. now saying he was in NC yesterday to kick of his Pres. campaign

3. Why didn't he do it in California?

2. My observation has been that it is bad for tropps to put them into a

situation where they cant "win" because winning has not been defined and there is no apparent strategy to the "war". I am sorry, dominating the middle eastern political landscape as a military occupation force is not a military strategy.

Troops also suffer when funding for VA hospitals and benefits is cut, they are given poorly armored vehicles, and are forcibly returned to duties when they suffer from mental and physical exhaustion.

4. The republican "surge" behind Hagel

will change his tune in short order.

Hagel worries me more than any other 'pug.

He WILL steal our thunder in Washington, and he WILL get press.

I have ever been worried that the lack of spine in the Dem
leadership (not ALL the dems, just the ones who fear loss
of $$$ when they fight for what's right)would create a vacuum
into which a republican white knight could ride.

Have you HEARD Hagel lately?

"But we owe it to those men and women that we continue to send into that grinder"

5. so now he's equating supporting the troops means supporting bush?

ok, fine. then put bush in a freaking uniform and drop him in the middle of baghdad. When he's fighting along side our troops - then I'll think about supporting him - until then - he's just another chicken hawk

6. He's a hot headed asshole. IMO
