I was far from being sarcastic. I meant every word of it and then some. I was being very restrained in my comments.

Why should tax payers have to pay the bill?

We paid the bill for him to go there and come back. And no doubt the vast majority of Americans would have no problem supporting a state funeral for a true American hero. Only a real jerk would question the infinitesimal costs of honoring the man.

The taxpayers are also paying your retirement salary. Nobody asked me if you should receive it or how much or for how long. Big government is OK as long as you suck off the government teat. But now we need to cut costs starting with Neil Armstrong. Give me a break.

I am NOT getting in a fight over this. We don’t even know if it will happen. Let’s wait and see what happens. Good Lord if I thought it would piss you off like this I might have said something even more interesting. Not worth it one bit. Have a pill and get to bed before you have a heart attack. Big Brother is on and it seems that they are having major drama tonight. Go watch!

I was with you until you said that military retirees “suck off the government teat”.

Ironic that you respond to what you consider disrespect of Armstrong by disrespecting millions of others.

Still, whether you think we deserve our retirement pay or not...

“You’re welcome “.
