Republicans have voted to cut $14.6 BILLION from Veterans' mandatory programs, $10.5 BILLION from Veterans' discretionary spending, the firing of 9,000 VA physicians, 18,000 VA nurses, huge cuts to Veterans' housing services, health care, and BURIAL BENEFITS.
This leaves almost 2 million veterans enrolled in VA healthcare completely without any actual health care.
Republicans honor the enemy of America. GW Bush has treated the house of Saud like it was a neighborhood chum at a barbecue. He personally authorized the immediate evacuation of members of the bin Laden family from the United States on September 12th, 2001, even though he had them contacted for information later on at taxpayer expense.
George H.W. Bush's fortune came largely from investments with the Nazis before and during the Second World War, violating the Trading with the Enemy Act with scarcely a peep from the federal government. Both Bush's strongly advocate the discontinuation of hemp parachutes- including one of the type that saved GHW Bush's life in World War II, and hundreds of other American pilots.
Reagan personally authorized the transfer of arms and material to Osama bin Laden, the transfer of bacteriological weapons to Saddam Hussein, and he once compared the Contras in South America to the Founding Fathers.
Republican conservatives love our enemies and hate our veterans, but are crafty enough to make it look the other way around. Bush stands in front of veterans' groups, salutes an army he never served, thanks Vietnam veterans for services that he escaped due to his father's buying him into Harvard business school, while quietly making arrangements to slash veterans' benefits, even for benefits whose wars were over 50 (Korea) or 60 (World War II) years ago.
Do not let them get you with their lies. The facts speak for themselves.
