Actually, if someone reads the crap from there and believes it then they are more screwed up. Nearly all of the points contain lies or half-truths.
I have really been offended of late by the idiots talking about the cheap or faulty armor of the humvee. Suggesting that the military or the Bush administration skimped here. The standard humvee was not and is not designed as an armored vehicle, just like 5 tons, old jeeps or whatever. They were designed to help the soldier survive a mine blast. I don't think any soldier or informed person has mistakenly thought that the humvee was bullet-proof or armored. The armor has to be added. I think the movie "Blackhawk Down" provides a good representation of the armoring of the standard humvee.
