The plan would be an about-face on what veterans believe is a longstanding pledge by the government to pay for health care costs that result from their military service."

the_truth 10 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Wow. Does this mean we are still going to have a military? I figured he would be eliminating this horrible waste of tax payers money in the very near future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucfan64 309 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 O.K. lets see if I have got this right... Lets provide FREE HEALTH CARE TO ILLEGAL ALIENS (I refuse to call them Immigrants) but force the men and women who serve this country to pay for their own health care. This seems even more ridiculous considering the fact that this same President wants to provide UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE FOR ALL. I guess that the all doesn't include our servicemen and women. I will go ahead and begin the countdown.............. Which countdown you ask............ The countdown until some liberal drunk on their own egotism gets on here and defends this heinous act................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhschamps04 15 Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 Let see someone get on here and support this. Come on we know there are alot of them on here why don't they come on here and defend this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JJBrickface Report Share Posted March 17, 2009 I also noticed no one came on here to support Obama the other day when we were discussing having a dialogue with the Taliban. The reason why? Because you can't defend either of the two. It really is sickening that this administration would single out veterans. All I can say is Wow!

Rhschamps04 15 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 The way things have been going it would not surprise me to see something like this take place. It makes me sick to think that the president of our country would even consider something like this. I don't know about the rest of you but if this is the change he was talking about i am glad i voted for mccain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supreme Court majorities hanging in the balances, financial crises unlike anything we've ever known. And with every passing day, I become more convinced America made the WRONG choice.

bucfan64 309 Report Share Posted March 18, 2009 This is probably going to happen. My dad is with the American Legion and his local office has contacted him so that he might be able to voice his opinion to Rick Boucher. He isn't a spokesman for them, they are encouraging all members to do so. However, my brother in law who is with the VFW said that he was informed yesterday from one of their reps that it looks like the President is going to go forward with this. All he has to do is say yes and congress will grant the RUBBER STAMP. This is not the CHANGE THAT MOST EXPECTED. Nonetheless, this act and many more like it might get some of the yellow dog democrats to reconsider next election time...............but I doubt it.

bucfan64 309 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Found out this morning that the proposal has been dropped. I suppose that the presidential advisers took enough heat from the Various Veterans associations to put this one on the back burner for a while. By the way Field General posted an article stating the fact that the proposal was dropped. The fact that it was dropped is not a liberal victory in this argument, the fact that such an ASININE idea should have to be dropped just shows how out of touch with reality our President really is at this time.

bucfan64 309 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Who said it was "liberal victory"? For the liberals out to defend Obama they will now say, "I told you he wasn't going to do that......."
