WORLDNETDAILY: Use wounded troops if diplomats refuse service in Iraq

Way to support the troops.

At least he said recruit them instead of draft them.

I'm sure some guy who just got his legs blown off is itching to go back to Iraq in a suit and tie and sell Bush's hatful of shit foreign policy and try to convince the Iraqis it's a chocolate cake.

Rep. Hunter urges Bush to fire rebellious officials who complain Baghdad assignment 'death sentence'

Responding to reports that State Department officials are refusing to serve in Iraq because it's too dangerous, Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif., has proposed a novel plan to President Bush – to bypass the agency and recruit from among U.S. military troops discharged after suffering injury.

Hunter, a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, told talk-radio host Glenn Beck today he met with Bush just 30 minutes prior to the interview and gave him a letter outlining the plan.

"I said, 'Let's go over to Bethesda and Walter Reed (hospitals) and as we get these new – these soldiers and Marines who are embarking on new careers," Hunter said, "let's recruit them for the State Department; and let's fire these guys that refuse to go, and we'll give the State Department careers to these military guys."

1. Maybe Hunter (Asshat- CA) would like to lead the way.

What a dickhead.

2. He's a loyal wingnut

He is about due for an appointment to the diplomatic corps.

In fact, why not just send members of Bush's "pioneers" to Iraq? They paid a lot to have him re-elected, they deserve a foreign post as their reward.

3. tell them that's what pioneer meant--they're going to pioneer Iraq

4. Oh Glenn Beck is involved in some way.

Ya know, I remember a country once that cared (at least marginally) for military personnel. I swear there was a time.

I have a better idea, instead of asking your victims if you can mutilate them further in a shithole embassy - how about the children of everyone involved in this ratshit insane idea sign up your kids. It's okay if they are 6 or 7. We will have a binding contract so they will be FORCED to enter a military branch and serve for 2 - 4 years.

How about it? I'm sure George's murderous war will be over soon, series.
