You are assuming he cares about the troops. His actions speak to that. As far aws his supporters go jchanman... how in heck could the democrats block anytrhing when the republicans controlled all three branches of government for 6 years!!! How about engaging your brain.
If Bush cared about our troops, why did he veto the bill that gives them a 3.5 % pay raise and enacts standards fo care to Veterans?
If Bush cares about our troops why did he replace Gen Weightman at Walter Reed with Kiley? Kiley is the Guy that caused all the problems, Weightman was the guy trying to fix the problems. In Bushes Neo Con mind, Weigthman was the problem. Kiley then stayed as his replacement until the public outcry was too loud!!!
