Supportin' The Troops
In an uber-patriotic display of supportin' the troops, the Cheney Menstruation and their chimpyfaced puppet are threatening to throw a tantrum, hold their breath, and veto a larger pay raise for troops, citing super duper double secret National Security issues, or something like that.
The slightly bigger military raises are intended to reduce the gap between military and civilian pay that stands at about 3.9 percent today. Under the bill, HR 1585, the pay gap would be reduced to 1.4 percent after the Jan. 1, 2012, pay increase.Why does the Commander guy hate the troops? Does anybody know where one can buy a Chinese made car ribbon magnet that says "Support Halliburton?"
Bush budget officials said the administration “strongly opposes” both the 3.5 percent raise for 2008 and the follow-on increases, calling extra pay increases “unnecessary.”

Now, now... the Pretzeldent don't hate the troops, he just don't respect them. They're people too stupid to have been born into the privileged class like himself. Riff-raff. Little people. Disposable, like an old Bic lighter. They don't need a raise. It's un-ne-ces-sa-ry (the Preznit's big five-syllable word for today). God bless 'Merka.
Love the 'Pretzeldent' moniker!
You're right, lush, he doesn't hate the troops, they are just tools, a non-sequiter, if you will.
