Double Digit Midget
Edited on Mon Oct-13-08 06:08 PM by mw
Thats what we used to call ourselves when I was serving overseas (in Korea) and we were getting closer to our DEROS (Date Eligible for Return from Overseas)--aka when we got "short".

When we got below 100 days, we called ourselves "double digit midgets."

Today, shitforbrains BUSH is a DOUBLE DIGIT MIDGET! 99 days!!

America just might make it after all!

Not all military/veterans support Chimpy McShitforbrains (or, Caribou McShitforbrains with lipstick).
