Sorry, somebody had to say that and I'm feeling particularly dumb atm

Unfortunately, the military now has to contract out the majority of their construction work in the combat environment... unlike the old days, when you had a battalion that did specifically this sort of thing... reconstruct destroyed rails and roads.

Thank the Dems for all those cutbacks and pocket lining from the contractors... who cost 5 to 10 times more than what the soldiers do, and the contractors do a crappy job at that.

I dunno...up until six months ago the dems had zero power in Washington, they must work awfully fast to have issued all those pocket lining contracts.

Damn . If it turns out they did a quality job, all those involved in the whole affair after the tanker blew have earned our respect, and a hefty bonus.

Oh I get it, the repubs just haven't had enough time to fix the dems screw ups from 35-40 years ago yet, got it.

Ya know Odee its not hard to find reasons to criticize democrats but that was a reach
