5700 troops to come home by Xmas

"In a televised speech to the nation, Bush said he would reduce U.S. force strength by 5,700 troops by Christmas and, by next July, reduce the number of combat brigades from 20 to 15, a decrease of roughly 30,000 troops." (cnn.com)

Don't get me wrong, I fully support a troop reduction from Iraq, BUT....Hey, Dumbass, er, Mr. President thanks for offering to bring home 5700 troops by Christmas like it's a jesture of good-will to the world. Um, all you're doing Numbnuts, is promising not to send the already scheduled replacements for those men and women. AND, It's not like those token 5700 troops weren't already coming home by Christmas, so don't try to make it look like you're the good guy here.

ALLAH, JESUS CHRIST, VISHNU, SHIVA, etc, since I am an equal oportunity offender of religion, I can't believe that America elected this twat! I'm still reeling from the fact that a low C-average college CHEERLEADER (um, can we say "gay" anyone?) can still be elected PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! And he was elected after 5 people dressed in black nightgowns treasonously ruled that he was the winner of the election in 2000. F*CK!!! (BTW, before you all decide that I'm calling the members of the Supreme Court traitors THIS is the definition of treason: η - the act or fact of violating the trust or confidence of another, the act of betraying someone or something....to which I say they did by not allowing the full recount, but that's neither here nor there....well, actually it isn't)[digression, sorry] Lately I've been hearing more and more people come out and call a spade a spade. Senator Mike Gravel called Bush a "mental midget." I'm sorry, but that's just some funny shit! Senator, you can do better than that! Watch how Jon Stewart did it.

You may have noticed a guy on the screen behind Jon and recall him saying something about the pentagon loosing Bleu, well, his name is Bleu Copas. Bleu and I were in the same Arabic class at DLI. We were friends. He went on to be a linguist and was "mission critical" because of his extremely valuable skills in Arabic. He was kicked out the Army for being gay. Here's Bleu. He's far more elloquent than I.

Here's another soldier I had the privilage to work with in the military. He too was in class with Bleu and me. Joshua Casteel went on to serve at Abu Ghraib. He was an interrogator. Here's his story.

God, I can't believe Bush is President of the United States! Bring our men and women home now.
