[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 396471, member: 9859"] I have respect for John McCain’s service to this country and I know he honors those who serve. But he is one of the few Senators of either party who oppose the GI bill introduced a few months ago by a Senator Webb, because he thinks it’s too generous. I couldn’t disagree more. At a time when the skyrocketing cost of tuition is pricing thousands of Americans out of a college education, we should be doing everything we can to give the men and women who have risked their lives for this country the chance to pursue the American Dream. So I did a little more reading on this. And Obama isn't kidding. McCain says the bill gives our troops too much. Seriously. McCain has opposed Senator Webb's proposed GI Bill because it helps our troops too much. So McCain has introduced another bill that gives our troops fewer benefits. Nice. I'm surprised DS that you point the finger at Paidslave as being "just plain mean". Reading back on this thread Paid has been called "male chauvinist pig", "a liar", "an old timer", "sweetheart"( in a condescending manner), one moderater even called him "an idiot"(he did apoligize), someone even ask his legitimate post to be deleted, and that all Democrats are baby killers. And he's the mean one? Just my 2 cents.....Anyhow Paid provides strong counter arguments and IMO has not been "mean" but a target. Lifer, Actually republican administrations since Reagon, Bush sr, Bush jr has skyrocketed the deficit even when not at war. Now with GW and his Neo-Con staff his economic policies clashing with his foriegn policies are raising the deficit thru the roof. Fear mongering also feeds the thirst to bolster our military ind complex instead of bolstering our own infrastructure. If you support bankrupting this country, than at least lets do it investing here at home. [/QUOTE]
