This is about doing the right things for the troops. If discussing this devastating issue is detrimental to Bush as you have repeatedly imply, then the administration should be managing the problem properly. I don't recall surrendering my first amendment rights to you or anyone else. My support is for the troops in the field. Where is your?

Ranger's exactly right. It's typical of the Bushbots to attempt to deflect the blame somehow to JFKerry. I couldn't care less about how Kerry did or did not vote. That isn't the issue. The issue is that we have under-equipped our troops in Iraq in a few key areas. First it was a lack of Kevlar body armor. Now it's a lack of armored HumVees.

I've said it already in this thread but I'll say it again- Give our troops the necessary equipment to do their jobs or get the hell out. There's absolutely no reason for this slackness, given the amount of time spent building up for Iraq (this certainly was no rush job) and given the amount of money we're rightfully spending on defense.

Again, anyone who wants to deflect attention to how Sen. So&So voted, rather than address the issue of how to best protect and equip our boys is an anti-American, traitorous, Islamofascist-supporting, false patriot. Feel free to address the many flip-flops and shortcomings of JFnK (you'll need alot of time for this) AFTER 100% of our troops are wearing Kevlar and riding in armored vehicles. Until then, you're only supporting the terrorists.
