"Hey y'all, keep your eyes peeled, this oughtta be goo--AAAAAAARGH my searing retinas!"

I wonder if the GI bill pays for schools for the blind.

Why Won't McCain sign the GI Bill?

While we're talking politics, check out http://www.gibill2008.org/index.html and sign the petition. This was added to the war funding bill today and I'm hoping Bush will have a shred of humanity and not veto it. Especially since I'm joining the military in about 2-3 months. It makes some amazing changes to the GI Bill and essentially makes it a REALLY GOOD reason to serve in the military.

Excellent post! ^ Nah, Gi Bill dosen't cover dental insurance. The really sad thing is that my VA healthcare benifits don't cover it either. All my costs are taken out of pocket.

Apparently the current GI Bill doesn't include dental benefits either.

Total fabrication based on the reactions of those too ignorant to understand that one simple truth... It's the M-I-L-I-T-A-R-Y, dumba$$!

First, the whole "lying to cover a drug incident" I find a little hard to believe from my own experience. I was denied entry into the service simply because, over the phone, I "self adjudicated" myself by (jokingly) answering honestly that I was "arrested" as a minor for pulling change out of a water fountain (seriously). Now, tell me again how they are lying about felonies, just to make quota...

The contract is NOT unilateral. The contract states what it states, and within that contract it give the government the right to do those things. Now, if you sign a contract in which the contract states that it may be changed on a whim... it was your decision to sign it, therefore, NOT UNILATERAL.

Stop Loss is pretty much written into military contracts as well. Going in, you ARE informed of your active duity status and inactive duty responsibilities. Why in GOD'S NAME would they have an "inactive" duty, other than to keep you on in case of the need for redeployment in times of war. That's a gimme, folks.

And, as for the Montgomery GI Bill... Oh, you mean you can't use it when you are in the service? You can't use it when you are active duty in a battlefield? Wow... what a shock... IDIOT!

So, the majority of the military is of working class or lower. Hmmm... Do I blame McDonalds for having to employ the less educated and unhireable? Why? Because you don't need a degree to flip a burger or pull a trigger. McDonalds is a fast food company, the military is? People? That's right, the military; used for defense, not for quantum physics.

So, the female soldiers feel that they must come back and be more watchful in the military, than they do walking down the street? I think not. The numbers they give, only point out that there is a .02% difference between the military and general public, when it comes to reported sexual assaults. (But, this is sort of hard for people to understand, when they can't even comprehend the fact that the military isn't McDonalds).

(200,000+/- cases reported annually out of nearly 300,000,000 population nationally (.06%). 2,374 reported in 2005, out of a military force of almost 3,000,000 (.08%)).

It's like... not only can they not figure out that guns kill, but they can't even use their brains for higher level functions such as research.

And... the kicker... "Oh, you mean, we might DIE or get wounded if we go to war?"

This not so much a video vilifying the recruiters, but giving reason to increase the age of legal adulthood in the US. If you are telling me that they cannot comprehend this... raise the age.
