The US army is running out of bullets! Just how shortsighted do you have to be to get a job in this Admin?

1. The old army saying...

is F**k Up, Move Up. This administration must be using this motto to decide on who is in charge.

2. If they would stop giving tax breaks to the wealthy they could afford

to buy bullets.

3. I think they should just decide

"Hey, we're outta bullets. Nothing more to do here. Let's go home"

Yes? :shrug:

bush should pay out of pocket

4. When you can't pull off a bike ride how the hell can you run two

wars?

6. Are you sure it is bad planning?

You can't run out of something you don't use, so apparently, soldiers are using A LOT of bullets. But then again, how would we know? By watching the news, you get the idea that there are a few shots here, a few shots there, minor skirmishes.

7. There's also these other two threads running (if you haven't seen them)

which go into the 'serious' side of the bullet shortage:
