Republicans Set to Veto GI Bill

21-50 to all units!

The fact that Wally Herger is against the 21st. Century GI Bill, as is the president and their party, is but more proof of what a two-faced chicken hawk he and his have repeatedly proven themselves to be by both their actions and inactions. GWB, Wally Herger and the Republican Party are all cut from the same cloth of hypocrisy.

All of the Republican Party and its mindless lockstep minions proclaim to be both pro-military and pro-veteran when in fact they support the prior but not the latter. A strong military can carry out their will under the guise of the national security hence the unlimited stream of funding for the military (excluding proper and effective armor and personal protective equipment) to serve the administration’s goals. However veterans, particularly disabled ones, have neither value nor purpose and are viewed no differently than the empty brass casings of expended munitions – mere remnants having served their purpose to now be swept away or be left behind as nothing more than litter. Consequently countless veterans are homeless and unemployed because sufficiently funding their needs doesn’t serve the agenda of the administration or its party. On my latter point this is where being “fiscally conservative” is exercised while the countless tax dollars pissed away for no justifiable reason in Iraq is excused behind a façade of “national security”.

Therefore it’s easy for service-evading cowards, such as Wally Herger, to turn a blind eye and a deaf ear to veterans and, in particular, those who are service-disabled. My contempt for Wally Herger and his ilk is boundless.

Jim Webb, a Naval Academy graduate and combat Marine, served with honor and distinction. He authored the 21st Century GI Bill that GWB, Herger and the Republican Party are attempting to quash. What can GWB, Wally Herger, Dick Cheney and the vast majority of the Republican Party say of their service?

Sadly, John McCain, the Republican heir apparent, a Navy captain, aviator and POW who endured years of torture at the “Hanoi Hilton”, having been captured, has abandoned those with whom he served and those following him in service by opposing the 21st Century GI Bill, selling out to his party over those who wear or have worn the uniform of their respective branches.

This is why more and more veterans, Active Duty, Reservists, Guard Members, their survivors and dependant ants are turning their backs on the Republican Party as it has been Democrats who have stood by and supported them.

21-50 out.
