Big F'n Surprise
Hey Folks,
The tube has been going on for some time now about the terrible treatment our wounded/injured/maimed troops are getting when they come home. (hear the NPR report at: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=7489265 )
Big F’n surprise!!!
It’s ALWAYS been that way. We NEVER learn.
OF COURSE it’s the government run by people who make a major issue of “supporting the troops” that is screwing the troops – and not just the wounded troops, but ALL the troops. That’s always the way it has been. Twain and Crane said as much, and it was true before they pointed it out. I said it as long ago as the Viet Nam war and I said it again before this war.
It’s always the same from start to finish!! The people – as well as the troops – are fed incredible crap – they buy in and work themselves into a frenzy (especially those old moronic vets who can never get enough war and glory) to blindly support the war and send our young people (not the old vets rallying around the bar at the VFW) off to die so “we can have our freedoms” (many of which we will have to give up in order to support the troops).
For a while our kids die and the elite make money hand-over-fist until reality sinks in as the deaths and failed expectations mount and – near the end – it is “discovered” that our beloved troops are being fucked over again (as they have ALWAYS been).
There is no excuse for this, other than total stupidity.
