6. The Pentagon is saying this?
Are they mustering for military rule? Interesting. This kept Hitler in power. The 'independent of a state' military decided to back him. So anyone who wanted to rule in Germany back then had to have the backing of the military. If our military backs Shrub through this election we are in deep doo-doo.

So what may make them do this? Mars mission comes to mind? Invading other countries who disagree with us and have stuff we want also comes to mind. Don't worry about the military being short staffed. Once they get the power they want, and this first term of his becoming a wartime President was only the beginning of putting their chess pieces in place, we will have a draft right down to the twelve and fourteen year olds who had to fight in the last days of WWII.

8. That's why they took reprisals for the Blackwater mercenaries
that shot women and kids in the face protesting the shutdown of a Fallujah newspaper that was reporting on Abu Ghraib.

Good news, KBR will no longer charge wounded GI's in US military hospitals for their food.
:hurts:
