I don’t blame this company for what they’ve done. They hire and train killers and thugs. Hell, that’s probably on their “Vision Statement.”

No, what’s pathetic is that we’ve out-sourced our security to third-party mercenaries. And, unlike Verizon call centers in Bangalore, this isn’t about cost. It’s about accountability.

This Administration loves freelancing. Let the hot shots from Blackwater shoot and kill and maim… and let the blood trail end…when Rambo gets fired. Not indicted or court martialed. Fired. I mean, man, that’s some tough love there!

The Bushistas and the GOP in general love this sort of hands-off, “We didn’t know” crap. They think it gives them plausible deniability. It doesn’t. If we have the “best trained military in the world,” can someone tell me why the hell we need to pay people 5-6 times as much to guard our diplomats? A lot of people in American, a lot of guys with gun racks in their pickups, are asking that question tonight.

The GOP has buckets of blood on their hands, and yes, there is a special place in hell for them.
