Is it possible to mistreat our soldiers any more than the Bush Administration has already?
I must say I was very shocked when some heads rolled by order of our new SecDef Gates. I guess I have become so accustomed of total inaction by Rumsfeld, I was whiplashed when Gates took what I believe to be minor action. Everyone in authority who visited Building 18 when it was in such horrid conditions should be fired if civilian or dishonorable discharged if commissioned. There is NOT ONE EXCUSE that can be made to explain why severely wounded soldiers were forced to live in such squalor here in the United States.
Washington, DC is not some backwater, third-world, battle-front shit hole. It is the capital of our Nation.
I guess the tarnish that encapsulates the White House extends everywhere these days.
