Why does the GOP hate the Military?

Brain Damaged Soldiers? Who Cares?

the stinging nettle: insights you can't ignore#115686433258101141:

... not the government, that's for sure.

More than any other war in American history, the war in Iraq is sending home young men and women who suffer from closed-head trauma. IEDs, mines, urban combat, traffic accidents: all these things can lead to head trauma, and are, in increasing numbers. As a result, an entire generation of soldiers is returning home suffering from the sometime's baffling effects of head injuries.

And your government is slashing the funding for their treatment.

Sayeth the Republican Party to America's wounded vets: 'Thanks for your service. Screw you.'
