Rumsfeld tells soldiers tough sh*t. |
|
Rumsfeld basically told the troops tough shit when they complained about body armor and the likes. Who do these little weasels think they're talking too? http://nytimes.com/aponline/international/AP-Rumsfeld.html?hp

1. They think they are talking to subhumans |
|
and that they themselves are superhuman. They are the elite, we the scum of the earth.

6. and, of course, the GOP is the "pro-military" party |
|
The problem is, the guy who asked the question probably voted for * and the straight GOP ticket. He will the next time, too.
I suggest we abandon any efforts to attract the military vote. We will get some, but most are hopeless.

``You can have all the armor in the world on a tank and a tank can (still) be blown up,'' he said.

At least he's staying on-message.
His administration always says the same thing about condoms.
