Spreading Democracy, Hitler Style

Calm down, calm down, I'm not calling Bush a Hitler clone.

This particularly troubling tidbit is behind the rage you felt at this post's title: in order to meet recruitment requirements, the U.S. armed forces have gotten lax in their efforts to ban hate group members from joining and being trained as killers at taxpayer expense.

No joke people...there's Aryan Brotherhood grafitti showing up in Baghdad right now, and I don't think the Skinheads accept Shi'a or Sunnis. You dig?

The most frightening things about this are a)that these people are now in the chain of command somewhere and eligible for promotion to positions to command troops, and b) they are holding onto the most effective military weapons money can buy, and are trained to kill with various weapons systems from high-technology rifles right on down to their bare hands, and they're getting that expertise with your tax dollars.

That's right folks, the mismanagement of the war in Iraq, and its effects on recruitment, have led directly to your money and my money subsidizing the next generation of white supremacists.

How do you feel about that?
