The Vietnam War returned many a young soldier as a drug addict. Operation Iraqi Freedom is doing the same but this time they are drugs by prescription. Dose 'em and forget 'em, but whatever you do, don't treat them for the problems created by repeated tours and the tragedies of war that leave the mind in a sensitive state.

Don't you love when they miss the obvious? If you believe in evolution, then just because chimps are raised in captivity it doesn't mean they gave up the genetic ability to notice more about what is going on around them because they aren't going to be killed at any moment. This also means we are going to have quit maligning them and find a new nickname for the nitwit in chief.

ReplyDeleteDose 'em is right. A good friend of mine heads to the VA, and is given 100 lots of percocet, which he then gives to another guy who really needs the shit. He's never taken even one pill since he was shot up in '68. He says that's how everyone gets taken care of there. Hey, if it don't hurt no more...it's a miracle!!
