Dear Troops,

We appreciate your sacrifice and service, provided you're not injured or raising questions about your (mis)use. Please note that aforementioned appreciation will not be extended beyond your final tour of duty, nor if one of the previously-mentioned conditions arise. Appreciation does not imply financial remuneration. Appreciation shall be collected in the form of Wal-Mart ads featuring you (or a Hollywood likeness of someone who corporate America thinks you should look like), the occasional shot at a sideline seat during an NFL games (actual odds of winning equal 1:the total number of troops in uniform), and yellow ribbons tied to every standing vertical thing within sight of an airbase, fort, deployment center or military cemetery. Appreciation may occasionally take the form of your life being risked for political ends outside the scope of your current mission.

We, the kings, queens, bishops and knights thank you for your service. Just remember, when you're a pawn, sometimes you're going to be rooked.

In the past year, Republicans have done everything in thier power to block health care that could cost in the upwards of one trillion US dollars over ten years. Conservatives, leave out the 'over ten years' part, since that would undermine their agenda. They had no problem with a defense budget of $640 billion for 2009, nor one for $670 billion for 2010. Also, they did not see any problem paying for the Iraq war's price tag of $3 trillion over six years (that's $500 billion/year). Go look it up, if you dont believe me.

When compared to the rest of the world, America pays more for national defense, then the next eight largest militaries in the world (Russia, Britain, France, Germany, Egypt, China, South Korea). When the 2009 bill came up about ten months ago, it sailed through the Senate & House without an ounce of debate or complaint from Republicans. But the moment, we start spending money on US Citizens, who are not defense contractors, they go ballistic!

Next time you talk to your republican congressman, ask him or her, where those WMD's we were suppose to find in Iraq are? You know, the whole reason why we went to Iraq and spent $3 trillion dollars over six years? I know, getting anything from a republican congressman beyond a wave from 80 feet, means you 'donating' $2+ million dollars to their re-election chest....

How touching, the taxocrats suddenly give a damn about the troops! I bet the military could use some of the 300 million dollar health scheme bribe for this cajun prostitute.

Get back in your cave, you fucking troll.
