Trying to once again Use Us for their political propaganda, as well as some for pure profit motives, is as it always has been close to a criminal act, it's pure 'verbal spitting' on those who serve highly used since 'Nam even with symbols! Like the 'purple heart bandages' that brought smiles and laughter to a certain political group! Many using this now are the 'chickenhawks' of our time and now, while still staying strong in support of our failed policies of two occupations, are sitting on the sidelines of both, rarely even mentioning them or the soldiers, the 'chickenhawks' of today, using a soldiers sacrifice to country to further political spin and propaganda!
If there's to be talk about "death books" and "death panels", for the fear factor, then talk about the reality of both, the insurance companies that practice both with vigor and to save the bottom lines of as well as the obscene compensations of their executives and investors!!

Thanks for the re-post here and at VetsVoice!
FYI I'm an in-country Vietnam Vet, retired Navy (left as an O3E) and then spent almost 22 years with Customs and Customs and Border Protection when DHS was created. Finally retired two years ago and I love it!
