How to Support the Troops ... If You Don't Give a Damn?

MS. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON

BuzzFlash,  

Why can't our Democrats do something about these no-bid contracts? This over billing and rotten services have been going on from the very beginning of the illegal Iraq invasion. So why are our troops still having to put up with, not only their lives in constant jeopardy from an illegal and treasonous war, but the supplies, food, etc., has never been what it should be ... and the reason for that is the "no-bid" contracts. Let the market take care of our troops. Not Cheney's Halliburton, one of the liars who is also to blame for the illegal use our American troops for personal profit from war. His company should never have been allowed to even bid because of his position in the Bush GOP White House.  

In the latest broadside against Halliburton and its performance in Iraq, Senate Democrats produced an e-mail Friday from Capt. A. Michelle Callahan, a family physician serving at Qayyarah Airfield West, recounting how she treated six infections over a two-week period in January, at the same time she was noticing the water in base showers was cloudy and foul-smelling.

Not only is this a crime ... but, why in the hell is it still going on ... at the very least, all Democrats should be sounding off about it. This is not supporting our troops ... but, we know that already. Lying this country into a war is also not supporting our troops.  

Taking the Bush GOP out of the White House would be the best thing to happen for all concerned, including our troops, who have been used and abused since this illegal invasion first began. Treasonous, that's what it is.  

Just askin ...

Thanks, BuzzFlash,
