Please say "hi" to Sen James Webb and thank him for the excellent work he did on the GI Bill, which was passed while you were away. <BR/><BR/>It was Webb's bill and he got it done, no thanks to George Bush or John McCain both of whom opposed it, inexplicably, and yet both took credit for it when it passed, dishonestly. <BR/><BR/>McCain was warned he would pay a political price for not supporting the new GI Bill and he did not support it anyway. What I cannot understand is why he would take that side in the first place. <BR/><BR/>We promise young men and women a college education if they enlist and do their duty (just watch the ads on tv) , and then we nickel and dime them when they get out. It was a sham, until the Webb Bill passed, no thanks to Bush or McCain.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035949355013113578.post-17616005002815371902008-07-12T09:01:00.000-04:002008-07-12T09:01:00.000-04:00Thanks folks.
