You All Know I fight against this war. But This Email sent to a goldstar mother is just hurtful.

Send By A Mark E Melancon

Here is the message
Puhleeze, offering comfort to mothers whose childern were killed while fighting an illegal war. Never.

Those fools got exactly what they deserved and I can only hope and pray that the tears of their mothers will form a flood of biblical proportions but NEVER find any comfort, solace or peace.

If these "mothers" were truly concerned with their childs wefare, then they would have protested sending them to fight in an illegal war. THEY DIDN'T and GOT WHAT THEY DESERVE.

I hope this mother's day and every subseguent one will reopen the wounds and overwhelm these stupid bitches so that they end up taking their own pathic and worthless lives!!!

Sincerely
Mark E. Melancon.

WHY WOULD SOMEONE BE SO DAM HEARTLESS?? WOW this is the crap they send my mother when I was wounded in Vietnam. Guys we don't do this do we?

Look it happens every dam year about this time. Memorial Day and Veterans Day are thier target dates. From Me Only the DAV is standing tall for Veterans. The American Legion and VFW seem to only care about backing Bush. But Here is the signs to watch out for . Veterans Charity calls are not right. DAV and other organizations only do this by mail. If they call you have them give you a number to call them back on. Make Donations only by mail or online to the organization you want too. VoteVet and Veterans For Peace are two other good ones. Now Larry Scott of VA WATCHDOG has one of these scams on his site here is the link it happened in Arizona.. http://regulus2.azstarnet.com/blogs/clocki...

He is still on the 30 day hold. But here is what happened. Congressmen and Women from the Democratic side put a hold on him. Senators from the Democrats step in and wanted a report from DOD why he had to go back. DOD decided to back off. Now if we can do this for all the kids with mental problems. There is going to be a Bill trying to stop this practice. I will update you on its number and when the vote will happen. I been at the VA for six hours so this is just a short report. I will keep you updated. Thanks DU for all of your support!

Today there was a Veterans Hearing on PTSD and Mental Problems the Veterans and the Troops suffer from. So What does the Ranking Member do calls Dr. Sally Satel as a expert witness.(YA Right) Sally Satel works for and is a paid mouthpiece for the American Enterprise Institute a get this Conservative Think Tank(Like They Think) This is the same so-called woman who told Military Wifes who's husbands have gone back to Iraq for 15 months to stop being babies. So Steve Buyer (R-In) and her start to marginalize and minimize Veterans and the Returning Troops suffering from PTSD. By the way my Brother Veteran Larry Scott has everything they have said before and now on his site at http://www.vawatchdog.org .. So What Did Bob Filner the Chairman of the Veterans Committee do(NOTHING)Why did we put our Veterans out to support these people if they do not have the guts to say a thing?I just do not get the Democrats in the House or Senate they have the upper hand but do nothing. If Anyone Know Please Let this Vet know why.

She now claims that we are the problem with the VA. To many of us have filed claims. And that returning troops with PTSD should not be given 100 percent. It will hurt their life's WHAT! The Republicans have found their talking head against us. Time to let Congress know we will not take her bullshit anymore. Brothers and Sisters this is the same B who told Military Wifes to stop Bitching about deployments. She claims it hurts the men who are in Iraq.

Cloy Richards, who lives in rural Salem Missouri, has served two deployments in the Marine Corps in Iraq. The Military list him at 80- percent combat disabled.

I have a 20 year old Iraq vet with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) Who now has orders to return to Iraq June 2nd. DOD Doctors claim he is fit. But the VA Executive Doctor said no way. But DOD is still going to send him. Tonight he was talking about suicide so I got him him a lock down ward at the VA. I am hoping this will keep him out of the War Zone . But I still think DOD will try to send him back. Got a call into local Congresswomen but she is a Replug. Judy Biggert) I called Durbin office hoping to hear back Monday. This My Brothers and Sisters is my worse nightmare working with these kids. Do Me A Favor give the Gods a prayer to keep him out of the sand pit.

I am not going to type must of this shit..

Sad But Necessary

The National Commander of the American Legion Paul A Morin (Lied about being in Vietnam) President Bush did the right thing with his Veto. This Legislation was irresponsible the Democrats in Congress let this go to far. As Far as I am concern this was a blue print for disaster! The Senate then passed a recipe for surrender. There is only one commander in chief and he should be the one to determine when this mission is complete.


I not putting the rest on the DU you get the idea this guy is nuts. He just don't get the fact not only where the troops being funded so was the VA with 3 Billion For Health Care

Nancy and Harry at 3pm will send H-210 to Bush. They will make statements asking Bush for the last time to sign. Then they will sign the conference and send it to the White House. Look for Bush to make a huge deal out of the Veto blaming Democrats for not supporting the Troops.
