Am I the only one who is troubled that the US government is funding a bunch of Rambo-wannabees who apparently have no accountability for their actions?

I don't know about others, but I'm with you. There are too many Bushbots on this board - they choose to ignore the voice of their own common sense when it conflicts with some policy that has Bush's name on it.

The PSC in Iraq come in a variety of flavors, but even among them all the Blackwater crew stands out with the image of being the most over-the-top in the Rambo caricature. They hang out of their helicopters with a foot on the skid and a harness to restrain them even when they’re flying in the safest of areas. Ordinary people would suspect them of flexing in their sleep to impress their lover.

Most of Blackwater employees are ex US military. The company does a vital job providing security in Iraq. I am sure that they face some very dangerous situations as they go about their work every day. That being said if any Blackwater employee is guilty of excessive force and has killed for no valid reason then he must be punished in a US court. This has nothing to do with President Bush. If anything those who try to defend the actions of Blackwater employees during this event are only acting our of frustration about the MSM and how it is portraying the war in Iraq.

” some policy that has Bush’s name on it”

Ah, the old ‘Bush’s War!’ nonsense.

P.S. You forgot to accuse Blackwater of stealing oil.
