It should be obvious to everyone that the person who wrote might be indulging in scarcasm. If the person isn't they are functionally illiterate, extremely infantile or a staunch conservative! There are so many mispelled and misused words it's hard to read. Either way it has to be someone idea of a joke!

The best reacation to a Cheney press confernce occured when he was in Mississippi after Huricane Katrina. He was being interviwed by the press while standing on a street, and somone is heard off-camera twice shouting "Go F-ck yourself, Mr Cheney"!

English translation of Cheney's speech: "Extended troop deployment is vital to our goals of a fascist america. We need scapegoats! OUr mission of protecting the US oil company interests in Iraq and our military welfare complex gets our Fascist Party votes in the Confederate South. So what if we don't give a *** about the troops. All we care about are FAscist Corporate Special interests groups that condone alcoholism, yet test for marijauna use when it has no impact on a persons work."

"I want you to know the extension is vital to the mission". Was dickie boy still wearing the body armor when he said that? Talk about chutzpa! Maybe he really meant vital to my bottom line?

The Grim Reaper gives pep talk in Iraq.

Infidel shouldn't worry about France going Ritey--what passes for "conservative" in France would make Infidel and the rest of Neocondom froth at the lips as "Komoonizm." Le Francaise will still get their substantially free universal health care, nice gummint retirement bennies, a month plus vacation mandated by law, and all the trimmins'. Even Sarkozy won't dare tough that. And at least the guy will stand up to the Islamo fascist political correctness that says don't speak ill of murderers.

As 'Church Lady' would say, "Isn't that special!"

The five-deferment coward who sent over 3300 of them to their death and another 25,000 to a life of disability gives the troops a 'PEP TALK'!!

I can hear it now, "C'mon guys... we gotta get out there and fight, fight, fight!! We're making progress, gas prices have passed the $4 mark in some places!! We have 'Middle Class America' on the run!! We still have a few allies left in the world... we must stop them!! The treasury has been completely looted, but we still have borrowing power, so let's get out there and create more no-bid contracts for Haliburton!!"

"The Army and the country appreciate the extra burden you carry," Cheney said.


Unfortunately, Cheney and his ilk have showed no willingness to share the burden, the daily threat of maiming or death, faced by the US soldiers and the Iraqis alike. Cheney's wealthy class of supporters got the biggest tax break in US history from Cheney and Bush, just at a time expenses were skyrocketing due to the optional Cheney/Bush war. Nor has there been much if any personal service by either Bush, Cheney, or members of their family, or indeed of the whole neocon class. In fact, the military has very few of the sons and daughters of the multinational CEOs and oil company magnates who have benefited so much from the corrupt spreading of US money to the 1000 richest families in America by Cheney and Bush. It's mostly the lower income kids, black, white, and Hispanic mostly, who are bearing the burden. The rich fascists just are raking in the benefits, like that 100 billion barrels of oil that the new Iraq "Hydrocarbon Law" will put into their hands.

Yeah, but we're gaining more all the time! Have you checked France, lately? It's a preview of coming attractions for our elections in '08! :)

Cheney defended the Bush administration's recent decision to extend military deployments as "vital to the mission".

This defense is not working at home any longer, so now Cheney is taking over seas. If the people of Iraq wish to continue to destroy their own people, what can we really do about it?

PS: CBS, remove the collapsible ads. They are just plain annoying.

What the troops hear from Dickie:

Rah Rah Rah!

What the troops are really thinking:

BLAH BLAH BLAH!
