One thing that pissed me off with Bush (i voted for him) was 2 things he pushed through, decreased pay inceases in the armed forces
actually this isnt true. The Bush administration has passed a wage increase which raises the average military persons wage over 1900$ which was passed in opposition to a proposed $1500 one time bonus to the active forces. i would rather have 1900$ a year over the existance of my stay than a one time 1500, I will get the actual factual reporting on this tonight and post it here. ( by the way i have family serving in Iraq too, GoD bless them for doing a job i couldn't do.)
