Supporting the troops to Bush

Means keeping them lean, mean, hungry and poor. John at Americablog:

Yep. The Democrats are giving the troops .5% more of a raise than the Bush White House asked for, so the Bush administration is now opposing the legislation. Yeah, I mean it's not like the troops have earned a little extra over the past five years.

Tax cuts for the rich and big business? No problem. But if you're a soldier or a Marine, forget about it.

Hmm. Multiple deployments, sending the wounded back to Iraq, cutting funds for brain damage studies, privatizing Walter Reed and housing our soldiers in filty rooms.....

Sounds like Bush supports the troops by using them up and throwing them out.
