I must admit that I did not read ALL of the posts here~ did anyone tell that exmarine and disabled vet that the chances are very great that HE is in fact around because of government provided health care and is probably using government provided health care at the moment!

Since he made it extremely clear that he does not want to participate in government health care he MUST be removed from all military health care and any disability money he is currently enjoying!

Those are HIS words not mine..
I am in fact VERY appreciative to the US government for providing this retired serviceman with healthcare!

If he was disabled from an injury in the line of duty 1 can argue that his benefits are bought and paid for.
Unlike someone say addicted to narcotics who are now on welfare and receiving treatment paid for by the Government.

A United States Marine Goes to a Town Hall Meeting

...and so did a self professed right-wing terrorist, so I guess we can call it even. Wonder how the Marine would feel about the terrorist..

Do they send a truck full of goons from the VA to his house and drag him to the VA against his will?

Is that another truck full of garbage I hear being dumped?

I have VA and Medicare/Tricare I prefer the Socialist VA even though I pay the same either way

I did not argue that he did not earn it~ I said that he specified he did not wish government health care!I said in that case he should be removed from it per his specific request!

Grandstanding without any substance and without offering an alternative. He has a bright future as a GOP politician.

46 Million Americans have no health care. I guess the solution by the right is to let them rot? They should just keep it real and admit it.


I expect that if he ran in his home district, he would win by a flippin' landslide!

46 million "Americans"?

Grow up hippie!

And one would also think that a Marine veteran would be honorable and respect the wishes of those who actually suffered under the Nazis and not bring Nazi imagery into a discussion of current US politics:

"Regardless of the political differences and the substantive differences in the debate over health care, the use of Nazi symbolism is outrageous, offensive and inappropriate," said Abraham H. Foxman, [Anti-Defamation League ]National Director and a Holocaust survivor. "Americans should be able to disagree on the issues without coloring it with Nazi imagery and comparisons to Hitler. This is not where the debate should be at all."

SHAME ON HIM.


Who brought Nazism into the discussion?


YouTube - NANCY PELOSI & BARBARA BOXER ATTACK CONCERNED CITIZENS


Shame on her.

Your disdain for a disabled vet speaks volumes.
