only people with 2 legs and 2 arms get money from military, the rest eat a dick.
Theres a veterans home 1 block from me, and another within a mile, i drive past these guys in wheel chairs all the time.
they dont have shit to show for any war except limbless alcoholics.
in FACT, I have raised thousands of dollars for veterans SINGLE HANDEDLY.
america does NOT take care of its heroes Mike, it never has.
jessica Lynch is not a hero.

Fletch I am from the South, I have miliary in every branch of the service.
My father and uncles were Marines. My dad's oldest brother fought in WWII with 82nd Airbone.
I also have lots of friends in the military, people I went to high school with.
I agree with you about the gov't should be doing more for its veterans and their famiilies - it is shameful what is happening.
There are some private groups who are raising funds to help those families. I can list them out if anyone is interested in donating. I have sent some off.
These guys are on the front lines putting their lives at risk for us.
You can debate all you want if the war was necessary or not. I think it was a good move, and will pay of inthe long term.
One thing that is NOT debatable however is the fine way our military has handled this situation. Our Military is one of the FEW things the Federal Gov't does well.
