6. The rest of the story

The disabled retired Veteran draws a retirement check monthly. The check is witheld to offset his disability pay. This money is maintained by MRTF Military retirement fund. These monies are then used by Rumsfield for whatever purpose he can justify. Are you beggining to understand why Rumsfield is opposed to stopping the theft of these poor, mangled, disappointed and betrayed Veterans checks. Its enoughh to make you want to puke. If you are intrested in hearing the story from the Disabled Vet's own lips go to http://pub49.ezboard.com/fvetbenefitsfrm5 once there your in the "Veterans tax" forum. It's an eye opener.
