How to Support Our Troops
This one goes out to the right-wingers and the left-wingers (all 2 of them) that read here. 2Slick points out a bill going through Congress to increase survivor benefits for the family of soldiers killed in combat. What they receive now is a joke, and it’s simply not acceptable.
We can debate whether or not our soldiers should be where they are. We can debate whether the goals for which they’re risking their lives is worth it. We can debate all day, but if we do not honor the risk they take, and the sacrifices their families make to support them, we are not living up to any talk of “honor”.

I’d rather see my tax dollars go toward helping fallen soldiers’ families than go toward welfare for lazy people that claim depression as a disability.
