They really did it now! The pencil pushing panty waists at the Pentagon have pissed Hambo off!
Once again serving up a hot "Steaming Load," Hambo has his way with them....
Reposted from Politically Incorrect Gazette --Steaming Load #1: Penny-Pinching Pentagon Rat Bastards
If you listen to the spin doctors at the Pentagon, what they did to a brave American warrior named Jordon Fox is just a ‘snafu’, an unfortunate ‘mistake’. Mistake? MISTAKE! It’s more than a 'mistake’, it’s a goddamn outrage and somebody should be fired, court marshaled and thrown in cell at Club Gitmo with the other sworn enemies of our brave men and women in uniform.
I’m too goddamn pissed to make any sense about what the beancounting asshats in the Pentagon did to Jordon, so I’ll let the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette do the heavy lifting:According to several brass hatted spin doctors, the Pentagon is beavering away to "make a wrong a right". If you listen to the bull crap spewing out of Pentagon pie holes, what happened to Jordon is an isolated case. Oh really? The Washington Times cites two similar instances and those are, quite likely, the tip of the iceberg:In May, a roadside bomb struck Mr. Fox's Bradley fighting vehicle as he patrolled in Baquba, Iraq. It partially blinded him in his right eye and injured his back.
He returned to the United States two months later and received a discharge from the Army.
In late October, the military sent him a letter requesting that he repay $2,800 of his $7,500 enlistment bonus because he had only completed about a year of his three-year service period. A week later, he received a second letter, warning that he would face interest charges if he didn't make a payment within 30 days.
The brass hats in D.C. knew about this crap 3 damn years ago and didn’t do anything about it. Now, they are all scrambling to cover their butts and, hopefully, talk some expendable minion into falling on his sword for this outrage. Why the change? Election year politics, combined with table-pounding, American citizen fury made this hot political potato reach critical mass.As far back as October 2004, Brian Ross of ABC News reported an analogous story. Army Spc. Tyson Johnson, who was badly injured by an exploding mortar round in Iraq, received a letter demanding repayment of his enlistment bonus while he was still recuperating in the hospital.
In a more recent example, two months ago, National Public Radio reported on Army Spc. Ronald Hinkle, who suffered a traumatic brain injury after an IED explosion cut short his military career. Not only was Spc. Hinkle owed $2,500 in back salary, but two months after NPR's story aired, he was notified that a $3,000 enlistment bonus would not be paid because he "failed to fulfill his contract" - by way of suffering serious injury in the line of duty.
While the brass hats scramble to put out this raging political inferno, the Clown Posse on Capitol Hill is gearing up to resolve it their own way with bills in both houses of the U.S. Congress that would require the Pentagon to ‘pay out all bonuses to combat-wounded service members within 30 days’. That sounds like a damn good start, but it’s still not enough. I want some rat bastard bean counter’s head on a silver platter and I want it RIGHT DAMN NOW!
