Obama gave a short statement yesterday on the Ft Hood shooting...
Just wanted to point out how important our soldiers are to this president......
Well, the best way to show the importance of soldiers is to not send them off looking for phony WMDs and getting thousands of them killed. However, the shooter at Ft. Hood was getting treatment for PTSD. PTSD is the result of being sent off to combat. There are is a lot more suffering that goes on that is not reflected in the casualty and injury numbers which are bad enough by themselves.
Funny thing is, he was a truck driver, and reportedly never, ever saw combat....

So a soldier who "just drove a truck" in Iraq didn't go through any stress? What a disrespectful and ignorant post.
"Hey soldier, wanna do something "funny" and relaxing, just put on your American uniform and drive a truck around in Iraq".
