The truth be told...

:clap: Totally agreed and thank you for this post. I am also looking forward to Webb, Murphy and other vets to add to the strong vet supporters in Congress. Led by the guy who actually doesn't botch jokes any more than the comediens. More importantly, he doesn't botch the truth.

As an RN for 30 years I have been well aware of vet issues, especially in health care. It really burned to think that all the people who should have known in a nanosecond that Kerry had been taken out of context, misspoke, etc. pretended like he really would have done such a thing. However many vets were misled by that is a real shame. They should know who fights for them the hardest.

The main thing is to keep getting the best ideas- like getting out of Iraq and really fighting the WOT- out because the media sure as hell ignores whatever they feel like at the moment. Even if they have one sane, legitimate expert on a show, they will have at least two pretenders with bogus credentials and their financial backing is not disclosed. The points the legitimate person raises may be dissed after the discussion is closed and the points raised by the fakers are not questioned.

Oh, if you need something soothing for that chapped asterisk, try bag balm...

Well behaved women seldom make history

Words to live by


It's time to be patriotic about something other than war.
