Oh no Reddog, This is what you want and this is what you get. You want "political views' this is a good one from the Disabled American Veterans about how the all the Republican Senators except one, voted to not to close a loophole in the corporate tax code and give the money instead to American veterans. Of course, your good buddy Brent expressed how I was misguided in posting this information. Of course, be curious to hear your views (or any of the other GB'er) on this issue. .......................................................... Never knew about this amendment (Akaka Amendment No. 3007) but it's underscores what really is the priority of the Republican Party (and is sure wasn't our U.S. Military Veterans). Akaka Amdt. No. 3007; To increase Veterans medical services funding by $1.5 billion in FY 2007 to be paid for by closing corporate tax loopholes Here's a link to how the Senate voted. http://capwiz.com/dav/issues/votes/?votenum=41&chamber= S&congress=1092 (btw, be sure to click on (see complete tally) to see who voted yea, and voted nay. Here's a link to Senator Akaka remarks on 14 March 2006 before the vote. http://akaka.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=Speeche s.Home&month=3&year=2006&release_id=68 Just another example of how Republicans care more about the Rich than OUR VETERANS. Only one Republican voted to stop Cooperate Tax Loopholes and give the money to care for Veterans. Of course, we all know how much the Republicans still want to make these same tax cuts and corporate loopholes for the rich permanent. ......................................................... One more thing Reddog, next time you decide to encourage "political discussion" over here on GB, take responsibility for it as your last remarks to me seem to be somewhat "two-faced" in nature.
