All Talk, No Walk
Our men and women in uniform love their country more than their comfort. They have never failed us, and we must not fail them. But the best intentions and the highest morale are undermined by back-to-back deployments, poor pay, shortages of spare parts and equipment, and rapidly declining readiness.
… these are signs of a military in decline and we must do something about it. The reasons are clear. Lack of equipment and material. Undermaning of units. Overdeployment. Not enough time for family. Soldiers who are on food stamps, and soldiers who are poorly housed.
That was candidate George W. Bush back on August 21, 2000.
Now he threatens to veto bills calling for the troops to be fully trained and equipped when they ship out to Iraq.
If the Democrats had a time machine and could bring the George W. Bush of 2000 into the present day, they might suppose he would switch parties to join the chorus of voices criticising the way this administration has failed our military. But they would be disappointed. The Bush of 2000 was only kidding when he said “we must not fail them.”
Surely the total disaster of this administration isn’t something that happens by accident.
