I got my Vietnam GI Bill benefits - help to get a loan to buy my first house and a check each school month while I learned my trade. I might be dead today if the VA hadn't helped me sober up. I was damn glad to get the help and I'm for damned sure not a "taker" or a "victim".
The newer Veterans, many created by an illegal and unnecessary war, deserve no less than whatever they need.

That's right, Gordon. I was really hoping that Jim Webb would be a presidential candidate but that doesn't look too likely. Too bad.
Webb is way too smart for the Republicans and way too tough for the Democrats. The country's loss, in my opinion.

Well said. I'll agree.
