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?
