NO NEW GI BILL BOTH SIDES ARE PLAYING POLITICS

THIS is one story of many i could pull up on the subject. Let me explain my position. the original gi bill was for returning vets from ww2 these soldiers for the most part were drafted they did not volunteer. they were owed for the disruption in their lives they were owed for their heroism. they were people ripped from society and put into the hell that is war.

today’s vets are different they knew what they were doing knew what they were getting into these people were hero’s when they signed the papers. they signed up knowing what they would receive in return. its a hard thing to say but they did not sign up for a new gi bill they signed up with the benefits afforded to their mos. some got money some got education they chose just like i did some 20 years ago. not everyone gets the same amount harder or more dangerous mos (military occupation specialty) received more benefits just like those mos’s receive greater pay. its something we all knew going in. we all knew who would see action if any real world event happened. its what we volunteered to do.

this squabbling of the 2 parties to give more benefits is all bunk. if the civilians dont know it those who serve do. its sad they have made this an issue its even sadder that they are throwing money they dont have to vets that dont expect it to be thrown at them.

obama and especially mccain shouldn’t be playing this little political trick

these people are hero’s and should be treated as such but dont throw money at them it cheapens what they have and will continue to do

MATT KELTY BENEFIT AND CONSERVATIVE (NOT REPUBLICAN) GET TOGETHER

Friends of Matt Kelty,

You are cordially invited to join us on Saturday, June 14, 2008 for an evening with the Mossburg Strings and Matt Kelty!!! Doors will open at 6:30pm and the concert will begin at 7:30pm.
 
Please show your support to not only Matt and his family, but to future conservatives who dare to step up to make a difference!
Let’s show them that this community can unify and stand with conservative leaders when risks are taken, much is at stake, and the local establishment undermines relevancy for the people.

A free-will offering will be collected for the Matt Kelty Legal Defense Fund. The event will be held at 2320 Broadway in Fort Wayne, across from the Zesto’s at Creighton and Broadway. This was previously Emmaus Lutheran Church and now has become the new location for Imagine Schools.

The Mossburgs are a family of nine children, ages four to nineteen; eight of them play violin and/or viola. They have traveled and ministered through their instruments for years playing for spiritual, political, and community events. The older children have played with the Fort Wayne Philharmonic and the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestras. They enjoyed playing for First Lady Laura Bush two summers ago and count it a privilege to play for Matt Kelty on behalf of all Conservatives!!!

An RSVP is appreciated, but not required. Please RSVP to mssharon@garden-of-arts.com or keltyinfo@yahoo.com or call 260-492-5602.

We look forward to this grand evening and pray you can attend!!!

 
Working with you in Christ for Conservative principles,

Sharon Kuhn and the Kelty Team for Legal Defense Fund
