Veteran's Issues!
Sept. 21st, 2006: The US military has more than matched the US losses of the 9/11 terrorist attack.
Sept. 22nd, 2006: A 24 year former "Navy Commander" states that, "Gaps in care — combined with the stress of combat in Iraq and Afghanistan — are creating a 'perfect storm' within the U.S. military mental health system" in a speech titled, “Broken Promises: The Unspoken Truth of Mental Health Care in the DOD”. The Commander has already issued his resignation.
Oct. 2, 2006 Newsweek issue: Vietnam Veterans are suffering more and more Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) reminders due to the constant reminders of Iraq. Sometimes, all the counseling in the world cannot help!
Sept. 25th, 2006: "One Army unit will be extended in Iraq and another will be deployed earlier than previously scheduled." Let's fuck the soldier's and the families! The argument that it's a volunteer military doesn't wash with me. Especially when you have to go to war with the administration given to you.
Sept. 25th, 2006: "House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi and Lane Evans, Ranking Member, Veterans Affairs Committee along with 198 House Democrats sent the following letter to President Bush today urging him to provide the necessary funding for veterans' health care in his FY2008 budget."
How well does your Congressperson represent Veterans? You decide!
Vote Democratic!

CHICK HEARN, THANKS SO MUCH FOR ALL THE MEMORIES.
| Well the weight of the world is FALLING And on my back I've been CRAWLING The state of affairs is APPALLING And the 6 o'clock news keeps CALLING Well I've been trying to see the world through their eyes Where black is white and day is night Left is Right Left is Right Left is Right, For me Well negotiations keep STALLING The United Nations keeps CALLING The Skeletons you're HAULING Won't hold when you're FALLING I’ve been trying to see the world through their eyes Where day is night and black is white Left is Right Left is Right Left is Right for me Put your head in the sand and you'll never know What's waiting for you in the depths below (below) Don't believe everything that you read Take what you want and keep what you need I’ve been trying to see the world through their eyes Where day is night and black is white Left is Right Left is Right Left is Right for me I said Left is Right Left is Right Left is Right for me For me, For me, For Me! TWISTED NIXON Written in 1998 after Johnny Punish who was sitting at the Las Vegas Hilton Sports Book and was hit by the absurdity of the place. It absorbed him and he wrote the phrase "LEFT is RIGHT for me" on a drink napkin. That night in a studio in the seedy back alleys of Las Vegas, LEFT IS RIGHT was born when then lead guitarist, Brian Jay Cline, wrote the clever verses while Twisted Nixon added the melodies. Sung by Brian Jay Cline, Left is Right is clearly Twisted Nixon's best ever in terms of a pop anthem. This song is the most requested song by fans. Produced by Paul Hampton of The Skeletones |
