1. Unbelievable - AGAIN????

Meanwhile POTUS mentions Vets over and over AGAIN

[catbyte]

2. Romney doesn't give a damn

3. To him, they are just unmentionables that he plans to cut.

4. It's consistent. He doesn't believe in veterans = retired workers. No profit, dispose of them.

Use until their expiration, preferrably to never come home and burden the system, right, Mitt? The only good vet is a dead one:

‘You should’ve served US better and died!’ Debt collector berates disabled veteran

“If you would have served our country better you would not be a disabled veteran living off Social Security while the rest of us honest Americans work our asses off,” one of the agency’s debt collectors allegedly told the vet. “Too bad, you should have died.”

The debt collector's callous attack didn't come solely out of his own mouth. This is from years of hate radio teaching Americans that others are to be used and tossed away.

Romney and Ryan are Ayn Rand followers who didn't serve. Like Cheney, they had other things to do. Veterans are an embarrassment, but the dead can be used as props.

Their worth is putting themselves on the line so the Romneys of the world can make millions off of military contracts and opening up other countries to exploitation while under the gun, worthless in any other venue of life. Just the way they treat workers, use, abuse and discard.

This is the choice in this election. Which way, America?
