This op-ed piece is from a veteran:

It's a good piece, and a reminder that our vets deserve more from us than yellow stickers on our cars and platitudes- after putting their lives on the line overseas, they deserve opportunities when they get home. They offered up their youth, their health, their lives willingly for their country. We owe them a great deal in return.

I've always felt that our military should get free health coverage (equal to the excellent coverage our congressmen receive) for life.
Thank you to all who have served-past, present and future.

HA!!

This bit of insincere garbage comes to you directly from the same hook mouth that said the National Anthem is not as important as the nfl.


Yes we owe them such great deal....maybe next time the least you could do is remind the nfl they don't exist for the Anthem to be played ..or not...at their whim.

And not take their side.




What a friggin' hypocrite.
