Everytime I read something like this I get an overwhelming urge to buy more ammo and Break-Free. So, Ocrumbo wants the vets to pay while human garbage that have never accomplished or contributed anything at all in their scum-sucking lives get the deluxe, on-the-house treatment. How far can good people be pushed before they man the barricades?

Ok... Lets all cool down a bit.

IF you notice the date on the CBO Report.. it is December 2008. The CBO dose this report every year.

Obama is pissing on the Veterans and Active Duty if he attempts to use the Recommendations mentioned..

but I would not put it pass him

One of my young lib friends voted for O in part because she didn’t like McCain’s track record on veteran’s benefits, and thought O would be more likely to support veteran’s benefits.

Such is the irony of life....

That’s 4 presidents in a row who have cut vet benefits.

Dunno 'bout the others, but the VA budget doubled in the 8 years under Bush, and Healthcare more than doubled....as to specifics other than that mebbe you've found a niche in there somewhere that got cut? I couldn't find a cut in the double!

"How far can good people be pushed before they man the barricades?"

Personally, I hope we can get some warrior leaders to assist us in what is sure to come.

zero is in .. face it, it is fact ... and he has no love for the America we love.

He loaded and surrounded himself with enemies of the state and we are most assuredly screwed.

I'm glad I'm an old fart and have more of a will to kill than when I was 17.

Candor7, this is the most apalling thing i’ve heard thus far. I hope you don’t mind, i reposted your article onto my blogger page, you have full credit for writing it, as i copied it verbatim, including your login name, date posted, everything. I want everyone to know about this. It seems like the media has him under their wing or all of America would be outraged!

I agree with you, about veteran medical benefits, and I think that the government should do what it promises, in giving educational benefits to veterans. I was in the navy for 21 years (11 years on active duty and 10 in the reserves), and I was near Baghdad, Sept. 2004-Mar. ‘05. I’ve been taking college courses and receiving money from the G.I. Bill. Last July, the VA sent me a letter that states that I had 20 more months of G.I. Bill benefits. In Dec., I registered for a course that started in Jan. In Feb., the VA sent me a letter that states that my benefits were exhausted, in Sept. On Feb. 11, I sent a letter to the VA, to argue, but I haven’t received a response, yet. Do you know any other veterans who had this problem? If so, did the vet receive the money that he or she thought the government should pay?
