The party of the troops?

Don’t you ever make the mistake of believing that, darlings:

Sources have told The Canadian Press that retired Colonel Pat Stogran, who commanded the country's first battle group in Kandahar in 2002, was notified earlier this week that his term won't be renewed.

He apparently ran afoul of the federal government in his increasingly vocal criticism of the bureaucracy, which he accused of being more interested in saving money that helping veterans.

Silly Colonel -- I’m sure the last thing Big Daddy wanted was someone to actually call him on his bullshit.
