Note: I am a Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veteran. So is John McCain.

Further, while this whole process of excluding BWN Vietnam Veterans from receiving veterans benefits began under Togo West under the second Clinton Administration, it was implemented by the VA under the current Bush Administration.

For other Vietnam Veterans related reasons, I cannot vote for McCain; but I d*mn sure cannot support stripping him of his Vietnam War Veteran status.

Now you know how we got the name "The Stupid Party."

Sigh.

My inclination is to take this with a grain of salt, except to remind the bureaucrats at the VA that if you shoot at the king (or the future king), you'd better hope you hit him.

We should have seen his coming.

Now, the Military noun will be:

Veteran, War, SE Asia, non-Vietnam.

This type of crap is precisely why I have never, ever mentioned Vietnam when asked if I was ever in the military and why I have never attempted to join any American Foreign Legion, or any other such organization.

All I say is yea, I served from '69 to '72. Didn't go to 'Nam so don't have any right to mention the word.

Nothing a good strong rope and a can of graphite grease wouldn’t cure when applied correctly to certain persons in leadership positions. mThis is a Chicken **** act where’s the so called adults at in DC?
