The average height of the American male is 5' 9" and @rod is 5'11".
Attacking a Veteran because you don't have the intellect to make any points.
Figures you two would take to Personal Attacks ... reflects y'all's pathetic personalities.

All the little guy does is attack others. Veteran or not, if you can't take it, don't dish it out.

A sense of humor goes a long way to maintaining sanity nowadays. I feel sorry for those who take thing they have no control over and NEVER will so seriously.

Senate passes veterans health bill after Republicans cave in to pressure
The $280 billion package will provide health care benefits for veterans exposed to burn pits. It passed after days of protests from former service members and comedian Jon Stewart.

"Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania had been one of the Republicans holding up the bill as he demanded a vote on his amendment to add spending guardrails to ensure some of the massive package costing $280 billion over 10 years could not be spent on "completely unrelated programs." Democrats disputed Toomey's characterization, saying the money would be spent only on veterans.
