Hello OldFriend,

I find it so amazing that the soldiers that I am communicating with are so upbeat. I never hear a complaint. You know the conditions are really poor. You know they miss their families. They may even have family problems. But you NEVER hear a complaint. It is so extraordinary.

How did the service men suffer during x42? I would like to know so that it is NOT repeated again.

Most people do not realize that every time a president travels abroad the Pentagon is tasked with the trip. Every dime spent comes out of the Pentagon budget. Every plane, cargo transport, etc. comes from the Pentagon.

There was a time when so much had been commandeered by the clintonistas that a military unit was stranded because there were no planes to bring them home.

Clinton never coordinated with the Pentagon, he made his demands and they were to be met.

Inconvenience or danger to the troops was NEVER a consideration.

Needless to say,the cost was irrelevant to the Clinton administration.
