Oops! So much for Bush's vaunted support from the military. It looks like getting shot or blown up changes your perspective a tad. Check out what our wounded heroes really think of George W.. This is what a recovering Terry Rodgers has to say.
He was never alone. Every night somebody stayed with him -- his mother or father or sister Marie, or his girlfriend, Jane Libert, 19, a student at McDaniel College in Maryland.
"I always had somebody to talk to," he says.
He got visits from celebrities, too. Generals came by to shake his hand and ask how he was doing. The Dave Matthews Band visited, as did players from the Washington Nationals and Colorado Rockies.
"I didn't catch their names," he says. "I was kind of high on morphine at the time. And you can't read their autographs."
One day a nurse came in to ask Rodgers if he wanted to meet President Bush, who was visiting the hospital. Rodgers declined.
"I don't want anything to do with him," he explains. "My belief is that his ego is getting people killed and mutilated for no reason -- just his ego and his reputation. If we really wanted to, we could pull out of Iraq. Maybe not completely but enough that we wouldn't be losing people -- at least not at this rate. So I think he himself is responsible for quite a few American deaths."
I am sure that Bill O'Reilly will accuse the Democrats of putting him up to this, but I doubt the warmongers are going to be able to spin their way out of this much longer.
