If a conservative is a liberal who's been mugged, a liberal is a
conservative who didn't save, smoked, had a heart attack, and expects
the suckers to pay for his condition.

Talk is cheap Tim, until *you* might need some help. None of us is an
island. The people in our country look after good people who might be
down on their luck. You are despicable to kick a man when he is down.

Glad to see you have survived your ordeal Gunner. Good luck with your
recovery!

Hey! I'd settle for a refund of 1/2 of all taxes, state and federal,
that I paid in since 1973. I'd not worry about heath care.

As far as the VA goes, I (non vet) consider that to be back pay. It
was the deal when they went into the military and VA heath care is
OWED to Vets by the public.
