GOP Breaking promises again to Veterans and the Troops
Today I have learned no link yet. The Senate and House GOP Leaders have reached a in pass on the Military Quality Life Bill. They will not pass it this year. So what does that mean for Veterans and Returning troops. No New Staff which is understaffed now, No New Equipment which is breaking down as we speak. Like in Spokecane Washington more deaths of Veterans due to Budget cuts. Veterans and Returning Troops put on huge waiting list. Here is the kicker the Democrats will have two weeks when they return to fix this problem. Why only two week. Dubba's 2008 VA Budget will come out the. Leaving Democrats with little time to fix what the GOP has broken. This breaks a code we Veterans and Military man live by NEVER LEAVE A MAN BEHIND. The GOP is leaving millions of Veterans and Troops behind. Not to say about how bad this will be on military families.

1. Unless Halliburton can provide this it will not be done.
All hail to the might corporate interests. Throw the vets aside. They better all run for office in 2008. Throw the repukes out totally and then hold the dems feet to the fire.
