7. I'm a Vet
Thu Jun 7, 2012, 09:18 AM

and the Republicans can't wait until I die. I did my job and now I am of no use, I'm disabled and all I'm doing is costing the system. I have had to fight tooth and nail to get medical help from the VA, and so do thousands more elegible Vets. I think the next winger that tells me how wonderful America is, will get the chance to experience the medical community first hand. I have been lied to my entire life. And they wonder why more Vets kill themselves than die in wars. All of our elected officials should hang their heads in shame as they are the only people in America who have real and affordable health care. Spineless cowards.
