McCain Stand on GI Bill is ridiculous

Senator Mc Cain does not get to set the Obama agenda. When Barack Obama visits Iraq he will not find the success John McCain is claiming is here. There are lot of solidiers stationed in Iraq on second and third tour of duty. When these leaders go to Iraq they are covered by hovering heavily armed blackhawk and chinook helicopters, surrounded by several companies of soldiers and marines and always wear flak jackets and helmets while telling us that everything is safe. Those who actually have to live in the conditions in Iraq are called to go on patrol in vehicles are not properly armored and pray that an IED does not kill or maim them(34800 killed or maimed and counting). America needs to go see for itself the human cost of this 12 billion a month fiasco. Please go visit a local veterans hospital and then decide for yourself if any of this is worth our sacrifice. Troops on the ground honor John Mc Cains service in Vietnam yet we are just befuddled as to why he does not honor solidiers tours here with his support for Jim Webbs GI Bill. He says it will affect army's reenlistment and we cannot afford it. Really Mr Mc Cain? Cant afford it but can pay Blackwater guys ten to twenty times more than what typical marine makes. Only one tour here does not merit marines going to college Mr. Mc Cain? Not everyone gets to marry a multi millionaire heiress like McCain did so please reconsider your position on the bill which it looks like has the support to override a certain George W. Bush veto. Pray to god to elect obama as President, that will change the world for generations to come.
