Did U.S. Rep. Lane Evans(D)Illinois,actually dress like a bum and mingle with homeless Veterans?

Now I know he has Parkinson's Disease,and I don't want to sound mean spirited,but I just don't believe he saw veterans that were actually fighting for access to Dumpsters

I know he was was one of the most liberal members of the House,and probably Illinois' most liberal congressman from outside Chicago,but c'mon he actually saw homeless veterans fighting over access to the dumpsters.

I have seen homeless people fighting over a dumpster; cans equal cash for beer and tobacco. I have also seen homeless people falsely claiming to be veterans.

The fact that some small numbers of veterans may be homeless and/or alcoholics does not prove that the US is somehow evil.

BTW, Lane Evans resigned from Congress 2 years ago.

Parkinsons sometimes is a cause of dementia in adults.

You know it’s election season when liberal cowards pretend to love the country and soldiers they despise. A person would have to be pretty stupid to believe that the socialist commie lovers are really American patriots.
