Hello,

I'm curious to know if you have the actual post on DU where the poll was referrenced for freeping. I'd like to see the post for myself. It seems to me that the results might have been completely valid, many TROA members (inclucing this one) are angry with Bush and DoD because of their oppostion to repealing concurrent reciept. This issue is the only thing holding up the defense authorization bill!

Do you think it's fair that disabled retirees forfeit a dollar of military retired pay for each dollar of VA disability? Do you think it's right for Bush's veto threat to hold up this bill in spite of the fact that 83% of the Senate and 90% of the House are cosponsors of the original bill?

I appreciate your loyalty, but Bush is wrong on this and the legislators who back down should be held accountable! Those of you who care about the issues, use the site for learning about the issues and contacting your legislators rather playing games with meaningless polls.

Respectfully,

Pollexter
