Kabuki Theatre. Just the Dems giving the Republicans cover. Neither party gives a runny $#*+ about veterans or the military. Anyone who joins the military these days is a masochist.
At least we don't have to sign up for Obamacare.
Not yet, anyways.
Precisely and this why I intend to vote against against just about every Repub on my local ballot with the exception of probably Sen. Ted Cruz. I see nor hear any outrage or even any serious pushback by any of my local Repub politicians in any form. I intend to support and to vote only for clearly established and vetted TP candidates if they support issues that are close to my heart. RINO's or non social conservative candidates need apply for my support. No more so called compromises with our enemies on the left.
These days when I'm asked if I'd do it again, join the military, my usual response is knowing what I do today about my government and military so called leaders I say absolutely not, no way in h*ll.
