Well putting the military in Iraq really shows how much the present Administration thinks of the military.

White House: 3.5 percent pay hike unnecessary

Troops don''t need bigger pay raises, White House budget officials said Wednesday in a statement of administration policy laying out objections to the House version of the 2008 defense authorization bill.

The Bush administration had asked for a 3 percent military raise for Jan. 1, 2008, enough to match last year''s average pay increase in the private sector. The House Armed Services Committee recommends a 3.5 percent pay increase for 2008, and increases in 2009 through 2012 that also are 0.5 percentage point greater than private-sector pay raises.

The slightly bigger military raises are intended to reduce the gap between military and civilian pay that stands at about 3.9 percent today. Under the bill, HR 1585, the pay gap would be reduced to 1.4 percent after the Jan. 1, 2012, pay increase.

Bush budget officials said the administration "strongly opposes" both the 3.5 percent raise for 2008 and the follow-on increases, calling extra pay increases "unnecessary."

I think using the term towel heads is racist. There are many Arabs who do like us and are pro American. The aLquaida is like a bad apple, everyone noices it but doesn''t see the good apples around it. I have met many Muslims and they are fine people.

You are a disgrace to the human race and know nothing about the military or law. It is fact that the rules of evidence in a court martial are much more lenient to be prosecuted with. You do not have to prove as well as you would in a civilian trial. The Marine Corps dropped the charges so i believe this makes the man innocent. Unless you were there you have no idea what those marines went thru that day seeing their buddies killed and wounded.i fought so everyone has a right to their opinion and the right to voice it, in your case i think i made a mistake to fight for that right. You insult every soldier and every vet who has served.

You''d lose. But to make sure I''ll ask my son the next time he calls from Iraq (he''s a Navy Corpsman).

Conservative Republicans who send other people''s children to fight their illegal wars with substandard equipment and who endlessly wave the flag but make no sacrifice themselves (like you pal) are the real military haters.

Given that Bush is a coward and draft dodger himself (like most of the Republican leadership) this isn''t surprising.

"This is a war zone. Remember??? Some of these kids are too young to be over there. How many of us would have done the same thing? Our marines are human beings, and some of them are very scared."

That''s not an excuse for murder, even in a war zone.

Marines are expected to conduct themselves according the the rules of war (the Hague and Geneva Conventions) and the UCMJ.

To act otherwise makes us the terrorists.

Anyone who would have liked to be where these guys were when this happened, I am sure you would be welcome.

This did happen in our country-9/11!!!

Never forget!!

The truth be known, this soldier broke international law. For this corrupt government to exonerate him only shows how broken the system really is and has been for far too long.
