Nobody in federal government gets armored limos until 100% of troops do
Great LTTE on armored vehicles for troops in Iraq (Just now got around to reading the Tuscon Daily Star. Found a gem of common sense)

http://www.dailystar.com/dailystar/opinion/52867.php

"Easy solution to problem of armoring vehicles

Want to get adequately armored vehicles to the troops in Iraq in no time at all? Simple. The president signs an executive order that no member of the federal government, himself included, shall be allowed to ride in any armored limousine or vehicle until our troops are 100 percent armored.

Iraq would look like a Brinks garage next Tuesday."


OK, Chicken-Hawk-In-Chief, here's a chance to really show some support for the troops! Draw up the order, sign it and issue bus passes to your minions.
