Freedom of Speech
Got any? Want some? Yeah, well so does she.

Next up: some warblogging. What's going on in Iraq is unconscionable. Both the way the troops are being treated, with contaminated water, inadequate body armor, being cheated out of their sign-on bonuses, forced to refund monies if discharged due to disabling injuries or stress, discouraged from seeking treatment, denied benefits, charged for access to communications with their families -- and the way the Iraqis are being slaughtered. Today, NPR informs us that approximately 1,000 Iraqis died over the past month, and during the first three days of April, more American troops died than in the previous month. Meanwhile, the U.S. Army has decided that troops are not permitted to buy their own body armor. Argh.
