As for asking others to help out, let me ask everyone here -- what have
you done recently to help a soldier or veteran? Anything? What have our
veterans done to help you? This newsgroup isn't large enough for me to
begin describing it. Think about what our servicemen have done and are
continuing to do, in spite of politicians' rhetoric. Think about what
would happen if all of our servicemen, everywhere around the world, were
to LISTEN to the politicians and simply drop their posts and come home. I
can guarantee the USA would be terrorism central. Now think about what
the POLITICIAN gets as a retirement package -- let's just say his health
care happens to be a tad better.

I was particularly struck by one veteran of the Bush crusade in Iraq who was
blinded and came home to live in his old trailer home with its broken set of
steps to the ground and no hand rail.

I wonder how many congress weasels will wind up in that condition?

That's not just Bushs fault. It's every Americans fault. People like to say
things like " Our goverment doesn't care about it's veterans" We'll If every
American would get off his ass for one big hell raising session, then our
veterans would be taken care of. We like to talk about things more than we
like doing things. Thats the reality. Talk behind closed doors, but don't
rock the boat!!

We have hands down the most efficient and capable government in the world.
But it's kind of like having the most reliable MGB in the world- still not
that great though. But an average Egyptian civil servant for example
accomplishes about 1/2 an hour of useful work each day. I'm not sure WHO
people are comparing our politicos TO though- maybe ones from outerspace? We
have a better government than most Americans deserve, that's for sure.

Hardly. I suspect Iceland is much more efficient, and several other
countries do almost as well.

John, you are wasting your time on this Canadian nutball. He hates
everything about America, except for what he can buy cheaper here and
take home.
