Default I'll

TEll what I do Doc. Every damn time I see a recent story about this I copy it and send it to:

(1)--The Whitehouse

(2)--My Senators

(3)--My Congressman

Along with some choice comments about WTF is going on here! I thought you told me this $hit was going to be corrected ASAP!

I also ask everyone (at every chance I get) with one of those freakin "Yeller Ribbon" magnet stickers on their cars, or "I support the troops" magnet stickers on their cars just WHAT the heck have THEY done recently to "support" the troops?

When they start stuttering and stammering shit like "I PAY MY TAXES" like ANY good American.....I politely tell them......SORRY, THAT AIN"T ENOUGH! ----Your CIC (Chickenhawk-in-Chief) says that YOUR TAX CUT is more important than body armour for the troops so the troops will have to get YOU....the American TAX PAYERS to buy the protective body armour for the Guvmint since he (Bush) gave YOU all the $$$$ intended to buy these items for them.

If nothing else.............it either makes them "aware" and/or pissed off at me enough to maybe write someone in Washington. Even had a few folks thank me for the info.
