People in this country drive around in gas eating SUV's with yellow ribbons on then and bumper stickers saying "Support our Troops." that is fine and dandy
while they are in a hostile country. But once back hone in the good old USA the country they were willing to take a bullet for it, "Fuck you buddy."
I see this more often from the right wing than I do from any other area. In their campaign's these past months not one and I repeat that NOT ONE, Republicon for President
mentioned support of the troops, seeing that they get jobs when back home, seeing they get the education and healthcare for them and their family when back home.
All I heard was how we now have to invade Iran and keep this country in continue war. Wars we have been in since 1896. Fight Spain, fighting rebel in the Philippines, fighting
Poncho Via, Fighting WWI, once again in the 20's Mexico (the California Militia actually invade it to try and take over Baja), fighting WWII, fighting Korea, fighting the little wars in
Laos and Thailand, fighting Viet Nam and then Nixon bombing Cambodia, fighting in Granada, Panama, Gulf war one, Bosnia, Somalia, Afghanistan (still going on) illegally invading Iraq.
For over 116 year this country has been at war. while at the same time ignoring the veterans when it come to assistance. Sure we have the GI bill but what else is their?
