I keep looking at images from Bravo Field Hospital in Iraq. Damn, you Bushco. You people are gonna burn in your own little hell. And aint no one gonna give you armor.

5. My heart goes out to you.
I always affiliated the military with integrity and there was no question that my father had tremendous pride and respect for it, but this ain't my daddy's military no mo'.
