Bush Thanksgiving stunt angers U.S. soldiers serving in Iraq
 

But other soldiers grew angry that their departure from the airport was delayed for an hour, while they waited for Air Force One to depart. Finding the door barred, about 50 troops got into a shouting match with the soldier blocking their exit. The streets of Baghdad were too dangerous to delay their departure any longer, they shouted.

"Do you have any idea how many IEDs are on this road?" one soldier shouted, referring to improvised explosive devices or roadside bombs. "I have to get back to my base. I don't want to lose a soldier because the president wants us to sit here."

INteresting point...
is a 2.5 hr thanksgiving PR stunt worth the life of even 1 solider?
its a nice idea but maby a mass adress sent to them via satalite would be more prudent.
Not to mention the risk, no matter how great, to your nations commander.
just :2 cents:
some mind candy i guess

This Bush guy is the worlds biggest idiot. Nepotism is rarely a good thing.

You'd think that he would;ve learned with time.........guess he;s just gettin stoopider :BangBang:

but i thought he was supposed to be a hero for doing this

They sound like cowards and traitors. Our glorious commander should have summarily executed each and every one of them. Fuckers.

Bush was there to tell all the soldiers that:

"Major combat activity is over. Mission Accomplished!"

A lone voice arose from the back "Can we go home now?"

Bush: "NO!"

You weren't in Berlin in 1940 were you? It's just that your statement sounds vaguely familiar :1orglaugh

i'm sure there's some soilders would luv to put a cap in that mellon

I think a lynching is in order!

dam where is a terrorist with a rocket launcher when you need him

I rode a tank
Held a general?s rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank

Mein Gott!.....FATHER!!!
