Supporting the Troops, Rethug Style

Molly Ivins points out an interesting feature of the new bankrupcy bill:

You may have read of the hardship on the families of those who have been called to fight in Iraq, including, of course, severe financial stress leading to many bankruptcies. Democrats in the Senate tried to put an amendment on this bill exempting military personnel, and the Republicans voted it down.

The rest of the bill isn't any better...
