I’ve met many veterans of various ages, branches of the services, and of every political stripe there is. There are quite a few groups like “Patriot Front” (which is a terrorist group/FBI), “Proud Boys” (terrorist group-FBI), KKK (terrorist-FBI), and numerous other clubs, groups, or whatever they want to call themselves. (Note here: If you are thinking of jumping on me for my beliefs, go ahead. But do not expect a fight. I do not return comments that are not civil.)
What surprises me is that these folks support a party (and a man) who have made it abundantly clear that they do not support veterans when they come back from their service. Nor do they want to support their families. AT ALL. Oh, they make all the correct noises on Memorial Day, July 4th, Labor Day, Flag Day, Veterans Day, and the like, and they’ll lay wreaths, salute flags, stand in front of them, wear one on their lapels, and wear clothing that has the Stars and Bars. But when it comes to making laws and funding those laws, do you think any of that matters?
Oh, heck, NO!!
Every single one of them–Senators and Congressional Representatives–voted in lockstep to keep veterans, service members, and their families from receiving benefits.
Don’t believe me? Just go to http://Congress.gov and look up any of those bills listed on that meme. You can see the vote totals and the individual votes. It’s all public record. I’m not saying or accusing anybody of anything that isn’t absolutely true.
That makes every word they say and every posture they take a huge lie.
BTW, it is NOT a gesture of disrespect to stand at attention when the National anthem is played without your hand over your heart, but it is to leave your hat on. It is NOT disrespecting to kneel. Every priest kneels before God, every subject before their sovereign, and every believer before the altar. It’s actually MORE respectful than standing.
If you are in the service, are part of family of a service member, or are a veteran in need of services, the Democratic party does support you. We are the ones who proposed those bills and we are the ones who worked hard to push them through only to be met with failure. Help us to get a larger majority in the Senate and in Congress and in the State legislatures. We need YOU to help us by voting OUT as many of these Republicans who do not have your best interests at heart. Vote us IN and we will get you the funding for the pay raises, medical benefits, and housing upgrades that you want and need.
