I can sort of understand this reasoning, but this still sucks. Maybe the Commandant can bring these guys along as his personal guests.
Why not have Pelosi fly over there and take them as her guests on the USAF jet she has demanded for her personal use?
My Grandfather was a WW2 vet and Army Colonel. He did this to see the WW2 memorial in DC shortly before his death. He said it was one of the best trips he has ever made.
They flew him out, put him in a hotel, and shuttled him around to see the sites.
Thank you if you donate to this great cause.
If I had the money, I’d fly every last one of them first class to Iwo......but alas I don’t but I wish I did then I could tell this feral gooberment to BITE ME! There’s nothing that SHOULDN’T be done for these wonderful men! I’m so mad I gonna start cryin’!
If they can chauffeur Pelosi and her entourage to Copenhagen for Global Warming parties they can do something constructive too.
Yeah! Just look at what that skank takes daily from the taxpayers.....just damn!
I bet a lot of people would contribute to the needed $50,000. Count me in and I’ll pass it around to get more.
Please ping me if you know of any fundraising efforts to get the vets there!
How about some PRESIDENTIAL INTERVENTION here, Obama???? Show you got a pair and get these Jarheads to IWO!!!!!
Show us you ARE an American, Obama....
Her Royal Highness Pelosi can send these awesome American patriots to Iwo Jima on her jet (instead of her sleaze family) paid for by the US taxpayers. This is a cause far more worthy than her.
Pelosi don’t have time for the “little” people............
Oh, but she cares about your health care NOT!!! She prays at the alter of power and greed.
Yep...That’s ALL that means anything to her, reid, that idiot in the WH...All those “progressives”....
Well dang, If we just fought that battle in Copenhagen, instead or watched 18,000 fellow solders die in Norway they could have hitched a ride with the Global Warming Summit or Nobel Prize entourages.
We didn’t see to have a problem getting to THOSE “historic” events with unprecedented fan fair and accommodations.
What a disgrace and insult to those brave patriots.
BTW, Great tagline.....
They had to fight like hell to take Suribachi. Here we are 65 years later and they have to fight to make it there again. I hope there is a fund started so we can give them the support they deserve to be victorious again!
We should not be footing the bill for this trip.
Maybe the slut Pelosi can give up a few seats.
Who should?
