GOP sez: Support our troops - don’t pay to keep the lights running!
At least, that appears to be the message from The Most Holy George W. Christ’s Rubber-Stamp Congress.
SAN ANTONIO — Fort Sam Houston has received 1,300 utility service termination notices for delinquent bill payments, which officials blamed on a major budget shortfall.
CPS Energy warned commanders at the post to pay $4.2 million by Wednesday or risk losing power. The post is three months behind on its bills, but both Army and utility officials said the two parties were talking and no cutoff was imminent.
Once again, I must ask just WHO is "stabbing our troops in the back?" Oh wait, that’s right. In GOP Bizarro World, "supporting the troops" means "shutting the hell up."
