New Math: Contributions to Mathematical Science by the Cleptocracy
 
Sample Problem:
The supply convoy you are in turns a corner and the third vehicle is
hit with an RPG from the sandwich shop 2 houses from the corner on the
right. The driver is killed instantly and his backup is blown out of
the vehicle and impaled on a broken off road sign but survives. The
4th vehicle smashes into the third vehicle, throwing the 2 drivers
onto the broken up pavement, tearing the left arm off one and breaking
the back of the second who is subsequently killed by an AK burst that
hits her in the stomach and the face. The second vehicle turns sharply
left and sustains no hits. The lead vehicle triggers a roadside
device, dissolving both drivers. In the melee, the 5th vehicle smashes
into the 4th vehicle, breaking both women's backs, and tearing the
hand off an off duty third soldier. A rapid response team in the area
kills their interpreter, and 17 terrorists in the houses and shops on
the street..

Question:
You are tasked with doing the after action using the authorized
definitions. How many US combat dead and wounded should be added to
the Bush stats on the War?

(Solution:
4 Combat Deaths
1 Combat Injury

Here is the Analysis
1st (lead) vehicle= 2 combat deaths
2nd vehicle = No deaths or injuries
3rd vehicle = 1 combat death, 1 combat wounded
4th vehicle = 1 combat death, 1 traffic accident injury
5th vehicle = 3 traffic accident injured soldiers

Well, I sure as hell hope they didn't hand out any purple hearts
to the Democrats.

Now listen here Kenny Fortenberry, pay attention, Purple Hearts are
not for traffic accidents. (Although I bet that absurdity is ignored
often in the hospitals in Germany where they hide many of the
wounded.) Only scamming supply sergeants, and govt contractors get
their choice of medals.

Seriously, Stieglitz rehash of the numbers using old fashioned
Democrat math indicates that the Bush/Cheney combat injury figures are
half right, and didn't Bush say that Cheney was a "glass half full"
kind of guy?

You've been to the Head Sergeant Colonel Louie LaPlac school
of military honors I see. ;-)

It's interesting that our men and women in uniform have donated
more money to the Democrat Obama than to the Republican McCain.
They must be doing some of that same Democrat math you're doing.
