Reply #6: they have the right to expect the full support of the American government.

Let's talk about your idea of "support" georgie. You cut the money for VA hospitals, you cut the money for rehab, and research dollars for brain injuries. You CHARGE the injured for equipment lost in the war, even as you discharge them from service. You sent them over without adequate body armour or uparmoured humvees. You sent National Guard troops, reservists and even IRR folk who have had NO TRAINING since their discharge years earlier?!?

On the other hand you brought them a nice plastic turkey and a great "Mission Accomplished" photo op. I wonder how many tours the folks on that ship have served since "accomplishing" the mission?

Support like YOURS they could do without.
