Puke

If you are about to eat then I would advise against reading this piece from the Washington Times as you may well puke straight afterwards. It's about how George Bush feels 'anguish' about the deaths of US soldiers.

I loathe the way all politicians of all parties use soldiers for party political purposes. They don't give a flying fuck about soldiers, they simply view them as cannon fodder to be used in their unnecessary, illegal, corrupt warmongering. George Bush couldn't give a damn whether 2,000 or 20,000 American troops get killed in Iraq - all he cares about is how the deaths will effect his polling figures. If he had any deceny they wouldn't be there in the first place.

And exactly what purpose do you think soldiers are created to be used for, other than to fight and die for whatever cause their masters decide? It's the oldest profession in the world (possibly second) and it's reason for being has not changed mate.

I didn't mean like that. I meant that politicans use soldier's deaths for party political reasons - ie. to show how much they 'care' about the men they are sending to die, they also try and shut down criticism of war by branding the other side as 'unpatriotic' and 'not supporting our troops'. All the while they are sending young men to die for wars that should never be fought. It makes me sick.
