This weekend may be the beginning of the end of the false sense of security in the stock market. The government may be ready to seize Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

The faux patriotism of the Bush administration is responsible for each and every death in Iraq. Multiple deployments and stop-loss disappointments continue to take their toll on active duty, reserve and guard troops.

2008 suicides likely to top record number from 2007

Well, folks... Apparently we've been to hard on "Georgie", Dick "The Monster" Cheney, "Rummy", Condi, et.al., they're not neo-con chicken hawks, they, like the Blues Brothers, are on a mission from GOD!

After an extensive survey of Alaska's residents, Governor Sarah Palin was found to have an impressive 80% approval rating.

Let's see, that means she, her husband and her five children voted for her along with one other unnamed voter while the two other contestants in the "Miss Alaska" contest voted against her. Not bad. Then again, there's always that competitive thing between beauty queens.

117 United States Army soldiers committed suicide during 2007!

That statistic was announced today and is the highest number of soldiers to take their own lives in a single year since the army has kept records.

I haven't yet been to "The Wall" in Washington, D.C. The names are in chronological order so it wouldn't be difficult for me to find those of the men I saw die. But there is another "Wall" for those who suffer from PTSD. The "Wall" they've all built inside their minds and souls that keeps the festering wounds from healing.

For those who suffer from PTSD, the following will probably sound familiar. For their spouses and families, I hope it brings a little understanding for some of the self-destructive and before now unexplained acts they may have seen from their veteran loved one.
The "claim" process to receive treatment and compensation from the VA for PTSD involves many months and MANY pages of documentation. Like most dealings with bureaucracy, it is demeaning and complex. A cynic might think it was put in place to prevent anyone from following through on a claim.
Suicide rates among Vietnam veterans, veterans of Afghanistan and Iraq and others who suffer from PTSD are at all time highs. It's time for the government to find some compassion and understanding for the horror of this affliction. It's time for the VA to honor those who have served with diagnosis and treatment instead of endless red tape.

Recent cases of violent veterans like the one who killed the coed in Alabama a few months ago and the one in this story:

are the "tip of the PTSD iceberg" that our country has in its future.

During our Vietnam fiasco there came to be an organization known as "Air America." Maybe you saw the movie with Mel Gibson and Robert Downey, Jr.

More and more returning veterans are suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Some hold it inside and allow it to fester. If you know anyone who is having difficulty adjusting to "normal" life, don't let them withdraw. Help them find counseling at a vet center. Otherwise, the suffering gets worse and lasts a lifetime.

I've blogged for years about the obvious lies of the Bush administration. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and the rest, I've written, are LIARS! Well, that's still true. But maybe there really is a psychiatric disorder in place which makes our illustrious Idiot In Chief believe he is being truthful. Maybe he's not a LIAR, maybe he's psychotic!

I've just finished forcing myself to listen to another speech by "Georgie." He's going to bomb Iran! He just laid the groundwork in his psychotic little brain to justify that action.

Bush made another of his "Iraq-Is-Gonna-Work-Out-Fine" speeches again this morning. Meanwhile, here in the real world... A State Department worker died of injuries suffered in one of the many mortar and rocket attacks of the past few days in the safest place in Iraq: The Green Zone!

Al Sadr's militia is once again ready to fight. Al Maliki, Bush's puppet in Iraq, vowed today to fight to the end!

Well, as the sign carried by the homeless guy on the corner reads: "The End Is Near!"
