At GOP fundraiser, Bush politicizes support for troops on the very day his Secretary of the Army gets canned for the Walter Reed scandal

How can the Washington Post print this article and not note the hypocrisy? Bush was giving a political speech about supporting the troops while the Army is enmeshed in a major scandal for not taking care of wounded troops. Bush talks about support for the troops. But talk is very, very cheap from George Bush:

Speaking to a dinner crowd at the century-old Seelbach Hilton Louisville Hotel, Bush defended his decision to send more troops to Iraq. He also criticized those in Congress who oppose the plan, saying, "They have a solemn responsibility to support those who wear the uniform of the United States."
George Bush has had a solemn responsibility to support those who wear the uniform of the United States. He hasn't. And, he can't get away with it.
