"Yo Prez, Got Some Questions for Ya'" -Guv Strickland

From Strickland's certified letter to the President: 

1. Will you give me your personal assurance that every Ohio Soldier, prior to deployment, is provided with the most up-to-date equipment for their mission, including individual body armor systems, M-4 rifles and other weapons systems, night vision devices, and up-armored type vehicles?

2. Will you give me your personal assurance that every Ohio Soldier, prior to deployment, receives appropriate training for their mission, utilizing the equipment they will be using when deployed

I got five bucks on Dole-y being the first rightwinger to go all frothy at the mouth. C'mon buddy, I know you can do it.

On a side, it's nice to see Strickland supporting our troops so much. A governor that doesn't inquire about the safety of Ohio's National Guard is a governor that doesn't care. Strickland's givin' it his all to get answers from the President.
