Today is Veterans Day. Why have republicans voted....sm

Posted: Nov 11, 2015

against every bill in Congress that would benefit our veterans yet still advocate giving more tax breaks for the wealthy and big corporations? There is no excuse for any veteran to be homeless and alone. If we send our men and women to war, our first priority needs to be taking care of them when they come home!

So. Bernie, you post on a MT board now? - nm

in support of our military and veterans speaks for itself. How did the members of congress that you voted for vote on these issues? Do you even have any idea? My representatives all voted FOR improving the lives of our veterans. Buying them toothpaste so they can brush their teeth while living on the street isn't going to hack it!

According to Sanders' supporters, anything the govt does is - "socialism." Do you like running water a

the police? You’re already a socialist! It’s a ridiculous cartoon sort of political philosophy.

He is going to give you everything you want and a couple of hundred rich guys are going to pay for it. He will also punish all rich people and corporations that assault your ego by achieving more than you can. This will incentivize them to work even harder in the future to replace their lost income, which will allow redistribution to continue in perpetuity. Simple, really. It is amazing that no one has ever tried this before. (sarcasm)

Of course, The Bern is an Independent, so why would the Democrats nominate him.

I usually stop reading posts that start with an - unadulterated lie. The rest is not

worth the time. But as my husband is a vet and on his behalf, I just want to briefly point out...

Los Angeles VA shreds claims documents, throws in trash. This was right before an election. The shredding of these documents prevented the being put on the veterans' permanent record their benefits.” Those in charge were given big fat bonuses.

Senate Democrats block bill boosting vets benefits. It's ironic that Bernie Sanders was the Veterans Affairs Committee Chairman at the time. Bern got a 1.5 Billion Youth Jobs act in exchange for helping the Chamber of Commerce import 20 million foreign workers. Weird, huh? The military has just been turned into another social program under Democrats.

John McCain, that fake republican, voted not to raise wages for veterans. There's plenty of blame to spread.

An old government proverb: An action passed is an action completed. What politicians post online or say on TV isn't always the real story. Look at their voting record.

Did you see the tweet by CNN's Marc Lamont? - It was insulting to our veterans.

It was a picture of Communist soldiers instead of American ones.

interesting the anti-2nd amendment leftists love them some gun toting Communists! People who denigrate our brave Military should have to live in a country that has no Military protection.

The only people denigrating our brave military are...sm - VTMT

the ones who have consistently voted down bills that would increase their benefits and improve their health care when they come home from war. It is criminal how many are homeless and alone, but no; some people think they are malingerers and lazy, just looking for a handout. Shameful! Like Bernie says, if you can't take care of our veterans, don't send them to war.

Really? Does that include Confederate vets? - NM

"free speech zones’ meaning nobody is allowed to say anything the left doesn't agree or they'll be singled out and in some cases fired.

The crowd mentality is the coup of the left.

The verbiage in this article is astounding. The Dems held the government hostage as much as they accuse the Republicans of.

I just watched a TV documentary about new war veterans coming back from Iraq. They say that every day at least 28 veterans are committing suicide. This is truly shocking news. I am wondering if their statistics are really accurate. They say that only 33% are approved to receive PTSD benefits. There is not enough money in their budget to approve all the claims. I used to transcribe Veteran's health care reports and know that there are many mental heal ...

She thinks PTSD started with the Iraq War. WRONG! She's old enough to know that this is a new NAME for battle fatigue, shell shock, and other names that commonly occurred in all wars with veterans. Does she really belong on an Intelligence Committee????? She should do some research before trying to put all veterans in the mentally ill group. Heck, she doesn't even know what is considered an assault weapon, so hopefully, her bill won't see the light of day vote-wise. Watch h ...

A government that fails to secure its borders is guilty of dereliction of duty. A government that fails to care for our men and women on the frontlines is guilty of malpractice. A government that puts the needs of illegal aliens above U.S. veterans for political gain should be prosecuted for criminal neglect bordering on treason. Compare, contrast and weep: In Sacramento, Calif., lawmakers are moving forward with a budget-busting plan to extend government-funded health insurance to at lea ...

Firing Offense: Democrats are constantly bleating about the need to better serve the nation's veterans. Yet when it comes down to it, they would rather bow to their union masters than allow the VA to fire workers who aren't doing their jobs. The proof is the Democrats' fervent opposition to a simple reform being pushed by Republicans — the VA Accountability First Act. This bill would let the Veterans Affairs secretary fire someone and not have to wait a month for the person t ...
