And what a bang up job Bush has done with his massive amounts of military spending. Lets go through them, shall we?

1. 3000 Dead Americans on 9/11
2. Botched capture of Bin Laden in Afghanistan where the Taliban is making a comeback.
3. 2007 was saw the most American casualties since the war began back in 2003, when he originally declared Victory.
4. N. Korea has gone and Iran is about to go Nuclear after Bush's Axis of Evil speech and invasion of a soverign nation who did not attack us.
5. Veterens benefits have been cut yet again and our troops have now been deployed longer than the troops in WWII and are spending more time deployed and away from their family.
6. Instead of investing in the military and using funds to recruit a better crop of Marine or Army recruits, they spend 6 times the amount for Blackwater mercenaries to do the same job as a soldier making 60,000 per year. Blackwater is the right wing, ultra Christian paramilitary group whose soldiers are immune from US prosecution and whose soldiers don't answer to elected leaders. When they decide to show up to your house, there's nothing you can do about it.

So, make fun of Democrats who would actually use the defense budget for defense and not offense.

Seriously, what planet are you from?
