The fact that Bush et al sent American troops into harm's way without proper equipment. And for Rummy to blow it off as "you go in with what you have" would be ludicrous if it hasn't been so tragic.
Still no armor? Where's f*cking Corporate America on this??? How long did it take Detroit to retool and redye and switch from making Buicks to making tanks for WW2? Overnight? It's been almost two years and Corporate America still hasn't risen to this occasion!!!
This makes me sick! Bush promised to defend corporate interests in his campaign of 2000 (Remember? He promised government wouldn't interfere with corporate interests, or some such nonsense...). He should have promised to defend US troops he put in danger by providing them which the armor they needed.
It's the least he could have done for their work and sacrifice...
