1. Once in a million, I think I may agree with him on this

Everybody needs jobs. Not just veterans.

Why give deference to people who volunteer to fight the wars most of us oppose?

What about jobs for fire-fighters and construction workers and laboring peons?

Why should you get extra benefits for volunteering to fight illegal wars of aggression?

The last just war was World War II.

Quit acting like signing up is an ultimate act of bravery and sacrifice. They're just looking for work like the rest of us.

3. I think this was a bad bill.

Any bill that gives preferential treatment for job creation to one group of Americans over another is a bad bill.
