The government is truly corrupt; I know a quadriplegic man here illegally who can't leave because he's completely paralyzed. He can't get medicaid to pay for the therapy he needs to maybe have a chance at moving again. So the libs don't even care about the illegals, they just pay them lip service for votes

Of course... and why doesn't the Mexican consulate assist? Because they don't care either. Smoke and mirrors...

I'm just saying that everyone is entitled to health care, but I don't want to start a flame war about this political meme, so I'm just going to leave this here.

I mean I know veterans are not get the special need at the VA, so I see the point in making this meme.

It's pro vet... just to show lack of priorities in this admin. They don't believe vets are special... until election year. Then they find that lost appreciation!

I think BOTH parties failed the vets... not just the GOP. The problem I see,... is many bills like this get derailed because they don't vote on an issue,... they tack all kinds of other shit on bills,.. that parties don't agree on,... so things like this don't get approved because of some tacked on crap. Both parties are notorious for this.

The difference is the Republicans do it because "the bill is too expensive", whereas the Democrats usually say it is not spending enough to help vets.

General knowledge. here's a paragraph from the article at Politico:
"Republicans have charged the bill was too expensive and disputed the way it would be paid for with overseas contingency operations funds used to fund the war in Afghanistan. "
Another article:
"U.S. Senate Republicans blocked legislation on Thursday that would have expanded federal healthcare and education programs for veterans, saying the $24 billion bill would bust the budget."

I blame both parties... I'd have to research both... thanks man!!!

Go do it, and post if you can find any time in the last 20 years where Democrats wanted to cut funding for veterans' healthcare or aid.
I've never heard of them doing that, pretty much ever. It's always the party that wants to gut government that does it.

For a guy he didn't even know. He told us that nothing cuts you more than a child's voice where the family members are seated asking, Where's Daddy?

Seriously. And stop making budget cuts on things they really need to get their job done, and stop stiffing them on their benefits. Hats off to your boy also, this country needs more good men.
