"US military chiefs in Washington and Baghdad believe the Stryker, built by General Motors Defense of Canada and General Dynamics Land Systems Division of the United States, will provide American troops with a better response to the ubiquitous rocket-propelled grenade (RPG), favorite weapon of Saddam Hussein’s loyalists. They are expected to show their rapid- response mettle against the guerrillas’ agile RPG pick-up trucks, which turned up for the first time in the Samarra battle of November 30 after an absence of several months."

think of how much money this piece of junk has made for General Dynamics - and that was the real purpose in building it in the first place.You don't think the auto manufacturers build cars that will last as long as possible, do you? What would that do to the auto industry? Now General Dynamics can build a new peasant-murdering vehicle, at taxpayers' expense, and charge a bundle for it. That'[s called shareholder value.

General Dynamics doesn't earn a dime from non tax payer sources and the share holders have the f*****g gall to give bonuses we didn't allow to the CEO ( I didn't see any thing on my voter pamphlet anyway) in the millions of dollars. At least GM ( spit) makes a FEW items for the general public.

no one claimed the Stryker was 'missle-proof' any more than the Titanic was claimed 'unsinkable.'

for those foolish enough to compare military spending versus spending on the liberal indoctrination/gunmmint school system:

NOWHERE in the Constitution is federal spending for schooling proscribed, but you can see the results daily of that failed federal mafia brainwashing system of unionized teachers and poor, trapped kids who can't read or write.

Waiter, why is it that your posts make no sense...

...does every idiot in Texas communicate in non-sequitors?

As I said earlier before my words of wisdom were erased by the leftist facist censors, let's just drop more daisycutters.

Nothing like admitting that the purpose of putting the Stryker in Iraq was not to save the lives of US troops but to kill Iraqis. That, I guess, goes along with the program to install "democracy" (capitalist style) in the country by padlocking newspapers that don't agree with Bush and the US Army.

Bush should ride around Baghdad for a few hours in one of those missle-resistant Strykers, preferably with "BRING IT ON" painted on the side.

Sorry, I didn't notice that there was another person already using Bush Hater as a handle, although I am not surprised. After this message, Bush Hater 2 disappears forever, even though he will still hate Bush.
