Diary titled changed by author on advice from thoughtful poster Quicksilver 2723 from the divisive (Screwing the Troops: Obama makes it a Bi-Partisan Effort)to something a little less dickish.

For 8 years George W. Bush and Republicans betrayed the men and women of the US Military with VA budget cuts, underfunding for vital armor and armored vehicles and by failing to provide a cohesive plan or strategy to execute the occupation of Iraq. There was the denial of the Insurgency and the marginalizing of PTSD and Traumatic Brain Injury by Bush pentagoners and civilian staff.

So we are closing in on one month from the glorious day of change. Yes it has only been a month, so much has happened in so short a time, continued economic meltdown (Thanks supply-sider kooks!), terrorist resurgence in India, disintegrating situation in Afghanistan, bloody status quo in Iraq.

Whether or not its $700 Billion or $250 Billion, whether its now or in a few months We the People are about to bailout the corporate fatcats on Wall Street and save them from themselves.

In response to the financial collapse on Wall Street the Federal government, headed by President Deer in the Headlights Bush and Wall Street Bitch Secretary Paulson, will be giving your money, your children's money and your grandchildren's future to the very Wall Street scumbags that brought you a worthless dollar, huge job losses, a disastrous mortgage market and overall economic chaos.

This is as important as the Iraq War Resolution vote. They need to know it and fall in line with the will of We the People....

The OODA Loop is a concept created by an Air Force fighter pilot, Col John C Boyd, to confound the enemy by controlling his action/reaction cycle and win aerial dogfights. It has many many applications outside of combat from business to politics.

It seems there is more to the DWS story than her reluctance to campaign against her friends. It looks more like she doesn't want to campaign against her financial interests.

As always its follow the money.

Little Bush has made the military his captive backdrop for countless photo-ops and ridiculous speeches but hasn't given us anything in return but endless war, broken units and broken families.

Obama could get this thing back on a serious track by naming a cabinet to include a Veep candidate.

At this point in the war approximately 1.3 million servicemembers have completed tours in Iraq.

PTSD rates are up, suicide rates are up, the number of homeless veterans is on the rise and as of yet neither Barack Obama nor Hillary Clinton have laid out a plan to address these issues.
