2. Gary Trudeau is a real patriot.

He has more respect for the troops in his pinky finger than the all the Republicans in Washington.

3. I'm sure republicans will be upset.

After all using the names of the dead infringes on their family's privacy. RIP soldiers.

4. This country claims to love its veterans, but it doesn't really

I personally would never serve in the military. My dad (ret. USMC, 27 years) and many other family members served in the military. I saw how they are mistreated, especially financially, by this country. The soldiers go overseas and risk their lives, and McCain is able to claim that the GI bill is bad because it makes things too great for the veterans. The Republican base ought to have their citizenship revoked if they support this. :grr:

5. I agree. I went to school on the GI Bill, and I find McCain's comments a bitter pill to .........

swallow considering that he graduated from the Naval Academy on the tax payers dime.

6. Trudeau carries the torch.

His series on the returning, wounded vet was incredibly close to home.

10. It probably started in 2006 or 7. I'll come back later.

Nor the years condemn.
