It is encouraging to hear the dems start taking bringing the troops home seriously.
Unfortunately they are still allowing the U.N. corporate representative, Obama proceed
with reducing the size of the military. WE ARE FACING THREE WARS!!! This is obviously NOT
the time to reduce the size of the United States Military. The only problem is our
leadership, not our military strength. There is no need to reduce the size o the military,
we simply need them to be on U.S. soil in order for them to defend the country. We don't
need to be wasting resources in desert poppy farms. We don't need to be funding military
bases in hostile countries. Obama is obviously only paying lip service to actually
reducing military presence on foreighn soil. This is just a last ditch attempt to weaken
our military in order to somehow make a terrorist invasion seem realistic. Reducing the
size of the military is the only goal, not increasing the security of the United States.
This could possibly create backlash if the bad guys are planning on installing a
republican this time. Hopefully this is obvious. Here are some interesting relevent
articles:

151 Congressmen Derive Financial Profit From War

Blood money stains the hands of more than 25% of members of the U.S. House and Senate

By Ralph Forbes
Who profits from the Iraq war? More than a quarter of senators and congressmen have
invested at least $196 million of their own money in companies doing business with the
Department of Defense (DoD) that profit from the death and destruction in Iraq.
According to the latest reports, 151 members of Congress invested close to a quarter-
billion in companies that received defense contracts of at least $5 million in 2006. These
companies got more than $275.6 billion from the government in 2006, or $755 million per
day, according to FedSpending.org, a website of the watchdog group OMBWatch.

On this site you can find short information about companies which profit from war. This
can be in various ways. On the one hand they can be the supplier or manufacturer of
weapons and on the other hand they can be directly involved in the war zone and on the
battlefield as companies who provide special private military.
This information is not complete, because of that you can find some links for more facts.
Also you are welcome to ad more companies.

Care packages bring the comforts of home to our troops, even when they are thousands of
miles away. The military provides them with the basics to live, but our troops have to buy
all their personal items and any special treats for themselves. By sending a care package
to the troops during the holidays (or anytime), you can make their lives a little more
enjoyable while they are protecting our freedom.
