she’s only saying disabled vets...not all vets
Of course we'll have to wait for the fine print to be made public. The "fix" will probably only apply to Civil War veterans.
The argument has been made that many go on to second careers- true Mr. Ryan. But most don't go on to lucrative Defense contract positions and have to be retrained after a long specialty career job. I would ask Mr Ryan to have congressmen live under the same cola restrictions.
What about all the Donks who have now gone on record in favor of the cut?
Technical error my @$$! They just didn’t think they would be found out this fast and once again misjudged how much most Americans care for their soldiers!
I have to thank the Senator. Politicians like her are helping me to get over my voting addiction.
Pity the poor congresscritter who was on with Laura this morning, trying to defend this “reduction in growth”.

Doesn’t sound like they removed the “snafu”.
Another stoopidazz skurt d’at don’ know nothin’ ‘bout GI’s, and I for true thinks don’ care!
She had to, ahem, “flash” at ‘somebody’ to get them to vote for her!
“Technical error” my butt. Sen. Patty Murray is such a lying POS. She doesn’t give a damn about disabled vets.
What about the illegal alien Loophole? is that going to be fixed or do we continue to flush 4.5 billion down the toilet still?
Always.
The Dems first instinct is to LIE.
They LIE to justify a law that you would not like.
They LIE if they actually think it would provide them a graceful exit (it does nothing of the sort) from getting caught in doing a bad thing (including trying to cover over another LIE).
Dems LIE.
They get together and plan the next LIE.
They think that we (you) are so stupid that we'd never catch on, even though their LIES are typically awkwardly contrived and clumsily delivered.
And this brings us to today's big, awkward and clumsy Dem LIE...
Sen. Patty Murray said a "technical error" in the bipartisan budget deal accidentally would cut pension benefits for retired disabled military veterans...
It's a verifiable fact.
Democrats. Their very first instinct is to...
...(You know)
.
I can’t imagine such “Technical Errors” when contained in written legislation. How could there be? It’s either written, or it isn’t.
This is like someone saying they accidentally loaded up an empty magazine and shot up their neighbors house.
So retired vets are still on the chopping block?
Is there every a teachnical problem when some ***hole former Congressman goes to collect his pension check? Somehow I doubt it.
