How long does it take to void the contract and staff the Kabul Embassey ? You're fired and see ya and we don't hire you at the State Department as a contractor to hire men that dance drunk naked. They're talking bring in contractors now in Afghan ? We need to find Hillary Clinton and she's not going to allow this as Secretary Of State. Who are these contractors and who do they hire ? The Obama team knew about concerns ? Why was the contract renewed ? Who renewed the contract ?
Perhaps now we can go back to a military draft. I know it's unpopular with parents of draft-age children, but the contractors we have hired to replace our military have proven they are irresponsible. Also, the Wackenhut contract obviously became a political benefit for Bush cronies. A return to the two-year draft of all young people, to either military of civilian service, would help restore some of the respect and values that have gone missing in our society.
