50. The abusive statements made to the veteran are essentially the same as Romney/Ryan campaign platform

Sun Oct 14, 2012, 06:49 PM

Oct 2012

The veteran is part of the 47% that Romney claims don't want to "take responsibility for their lives" because they pay no taxes. Romney didn't even bother to thank veterans during his speech at the RNC. The Republicans in Congress constantly just voted a few weeks ago not to extend benefits to veterans. The Republicans don't care about wounded and disabled veterans. Their message is encapsulated in the abusive words of that bill collector.
