Why Republicans hate and loathe General Shinseki

[rdean]

New Strategy Vindicates Ex-Army Chief Shinseki

But the president’s new strategy, with its explicit acknowledgment that not enough troops had been sent to Iraq to establish control, was a vindication for General Shinseki, who as Army chief of staff publicly told Congress as much just before the war began in 2003.

First vilified, then marginalized by the Bush administration after those comments, General Shinseki retired and faded away, even as lawmakers, pundits and politicians increasingly cited his prescience.

“We never had enough troops to begin with,” Senator Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican, said just before the president’s televised address. “A month or two ago we found out the Army is broken, and they agreed that General Shinseki was right.”

General Shinseki’s treatment intimidated other top officers.

The GOP symbol of the elephant is a very good one for the GOP. One thing we know about Republicans: When their failure, fiasco and damage is publicly pointed out, they don't forget - EVER!

General Shinseki made the mistake of telling Republicans they were wrong. And he was severely punished for it. And they will make sure he keeps getting punished.

The GOP had both houses and the presidency and did nothing to help returning veterans they sent off to a fake war.

Another Republican disaster they left for Obama to clean up. They say it's been 6 years. OK, but how have they helped? Remember, it was their disaster to begin with.

nice propaganda letard; now wipe Mr Soros' seed off your chin.

But we dont like him because he's messed up; and refuses to do the honorable thing and step down

Liking has nothing to with anything. He's incompetent in leading the VA.

Actually, the honorable thing for him would be sepukku, but he's not honorable

And to make sure Obama's statement would come true Obama and his fellow traitors MADE sure the enemy had plenty of ammunition.
Ammunition to recruit more terrorists who took these words from USA congress members:

U.S. Rep. John Murtha(D) "Our troops killed innocent civilians in cold blood,”

This told the terrorists they were justified to put bombs on little kids who when handed candy by US troops blew themselves up.. because
after all U.S. congress man said the troops killed innocent people.. SO that was OK to blow them and the little kids up!
SICK..

Senator Kerry (D) "American soldiers going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children."

For once you idiot defenders of these statements TELL ME.. do you think ALL American troops are terrorists?
If so then you like the terrorists think ALL Americans are worse then the terrorists right? Go ahead admit it! The SoS said so! US troops are terrorists!

Durbin (D) "must have been done by Nazis, Soviets"--action of Americans in the treatment of their prisoners.

and of course all you mindless uninformed can't imagine what the enemy would use to kill thousands and their justification... Durbin and other
USA congress members telling the enemy ..HEY YOU GUYS are justified!

Senator Obama said "troops are air-raiding villages and killing civilians,"

Now this guy is the Commander-in-Chief over all the military. Do you think the military is very happy to salute a CIC who thinks that our
military methodically "air-raiding villages and killing civilians"?

How can ANY American respect the above traitors and YET millions of Americans either didn't care their President called our troops civilian killers!
Or they agree!
So tell me you Obama supporters... DO YOU AGREE with the above statements?

AND don't give me that "context" crap! The terrorists don't use it in context so either these idiots were too stupid their comments would be used
which should mean they are totally inept to be MY representative OR the did it on purpose!
Either way these are stupid, vile people that hate our military.

I hate and loathe the general now? How does rdean learn my feelings before I do?

 

[Stephanie]

I'd say you're the one who hates and loathes him

You stated the thread so he's on your little mind

 

[IlarMeilyr]

Personally, the VA scandal, and it IS a scandal, doesn't require the resignation of the Secretary.

I don't think he was "in on it" nor do I think he was at the helm long enough to necessarily even have known of the dishonesty by some hospital administrations.

I don't hate the former general at all.

Of course, I'm not a Republican. But I doubt Republicans in general hate the guy, either.

rderp is just waxing more stupid than normal today.

rdean never passes up anything , even the deaths of our vets waiting for healthcare under the Obama regime to blame Republicans for something

what a horrible human being

Republicans have done nothing to help veterans.

Oh SNAP, veterans get dissed by the GOP

Many veterans returning from service face challenges in finding work. While the overall unemployment rate for veterans is lower than the national average, the unemployment rate for recent veterans (serving in September 2001 to the present) remains high, at 10.1 percent in September 2013. About one-quarter of recent veterans reported service-connected disabilities in 2011,[4] which can impact their ability to provide for their families: households with a veteran with a disability that prevents them from working are about twice as likely to lack access to adequate food than households without a disabled member.

------------------------

Republicans even go after disabled veterans. And they call me low?

 

[Steven_R]

I detested Shinseki since long before Iraq, way back when he was CoS of the Army and decided everyone needed a beret.

The **** cap was good enough for Ike and Patton and Bradley, but Shinseki felt intimidated wearing it when he was inspecting beret-ed units.

your right Dean they havent....but how come even during the time when your buddies were in charge we were still hearing about Veterans living on the street or sick and no one doing much?.....the Post Office has a lot of Vets working there Dean....and those guys said it was no better during Carters reign or Clintons and the kids coming back from Afghanistan during Obamas said they are not too impressed with the service they are getting.....could it be you are just being a little to biased to comment on this honestly?....

 

[Stephanie]

Good ole Washingtoncompost

gotta cover Obama's ass, gotta cover Obama's ass

so who they going write about, the GOP of course

shun that rag folks

 

[skookerasbil]

Bottom line on this story.......progressives loath the military. Always have......always will. To them, if a Vet is rotting on some back ward, they deserve it.

Fucking weenie fags.




Interesting factoid.......in California, they took a look at how many patients a private cardiologist saw in one year. It equaled the amount of patients 8 VA cardiologists saw in the same time frame. Of course, that's just fine with progressives.

Once again highlights the fact that governments doing anything is a joke......cant do anything right.

Look at Reagan throwing the mentally ill out into the streets. Look at todays GOP with only one house blocking food stamps for disabled veterans. What's the point?

Because once the Republicans have really fucked the country, it's hard to fix their damage, especially with them fighting it every step of the way.

How you guys justify support for your party by saying "Our guys are no worse than yours". You don't want them better. Like substandard insurance and below minimum wage jobs, Republicans fight for "shit". Not anything good, but "shit".

rderp cannot post intelligently mainly because he has neither brains nor honesty in his entire body.

President Reagan never threw the mentally ill out on the street. But an honest fact has never stood between rderp and one of his worthless posting "efforts."

rderp should go fuck himself; He's such a lowlife piece of worthless shit.
