Just read on Dem sites and they openly state they cant allow Bush or the Repubs to win on this cause it makes them look bad. So they are intentionally being against all of the admins and military policy.

Why don't you post a few links to these Dem sites?
If you can't, I guess we'll all know where you pulled that comment from.

Nothing wrong with occasionally reminding everyone how many of us are over there sacrificing and how many of us are over there profiting (some both). Other than some of our civil liberties that is all the sacrifice that has been asked of the vast majority of us. Too many are in a rush to give up the former and cannot stand to hear the latter.

There hasnt been the old KP duty for years in the mmilitary. Most of the base type stuff is civilian.
Most construction is civil once the mil part has been secured supposedly.

You would want to use locals as much as possible for good will etc.

I thought the idea was to use contractors to turn more people loose for actual military activities....on purpose and knowingly by the congress leadership.

Althoug it wont make a difference as long as the Dems are intent on losing again and are actively trying to thwart winning.
