Me?.... a RAT? ....hardly! I am a combat veteran, doing 2 tours between '67-71. I fully support those in the military who are there doing their job. I have no respect for those sitting there whining about "having" to be there, when the ONLY reason they are there, is that they VOLUNTEERED for reserve duty. They knew exactly what "could" happen BEFORE they signed on the dotted line. Now, they are unhappy with it! ....do your dang job and quit sniveling!

I appreciate your service. I didn't call you a RAT.

If we can give money to illegals to pop out babies, we can certainly find a way to help those on active duty through hard times. I don't know what form that will take but hope lenders and debt holders will work with them so they do not have to declare bankruptcy. That was my point. I didn't see them as sniveling whiners.
