1. It's time...
For an insurgent movement in The Legion. Right now, it's being run by the guys who sit at the post bar all day, drink and talk tough.

2. "Just Say No"
My reply to the author of the article, Mr.Paul A. Morin, is as follow:
How dare you call Congress's execution of its constitutional authority 'political gamesmanship.' You sir, embolden the enemy when you denigrate our government.

4. Oh gods, not again
In Satan's Name, do these people never get tired?

I know the military tends to tilt Republican but that doesn't mean that you have to support the Republican on every freaking issue! Or, come to think of it, get involved in politics at all, outside your specific area.

7. Haha, Morin's a phoney-baloney chickenhawk
Another one of those never-saw-combat warriors who enjoys the fraudulent cachet of being a "vietnam veteran":

14. I'm simply amazed they put up with it
Not his politics, but that he's a fraud. I saw some ugly situations when I was a bartender long ago, when my Vietnam vet friends smoked out the occasional poser. They would've thought this Morin guy worthy of a kick in the ass.

11. I am a member of the Legion Auxiliary
and have always voiced the fact that VA benefits have been drastically been cut during *'s administration.

They don't like to hear it but my S/O has been paying more and more every year for his health benefits ever since the Chimp came into power. (He's a Vietnam vet) Especially for prescriptions, they have more than doubled in the past three years.

13. If they don't like
to hear it..then why don't they ask the bushits not to do it?

Are they in denial about their chosen one?

15. Of course, denial is not just a river in Egypt.
The Legion here, in a senior citizen area of AZ, has someone who will fight for veteran's rights, any veteran who has served in a 'foreign' war, from WWII to this current illegal war. Many of those who are seeing the cutbacks of this admin are those who served in Vietnam and are unlikely to fight for their benefits. The liason is doing all he can can to help those vets.
