    Sounds great to me DesertWolf!
    Here is something that a friend sent to me
    that shows how screwed up things really are.



    By Rush Limbaugh:

    I think the vast differences in compensation between victims of the September 11 casualty and those who die serving our country in Uniform are profound.
    No one is really talking about it either, because you just don't criticize anything having to do with September 11.
    Well, I can't let the numbers pass by because it says something really disturbing about the entitlement mentality of this country.
    If you lost a family member in the September 11 attack, you're going to get an average of $1,185,000.
    The range is a minimum guarantee of $250,000, all the way up to $4.7 million.

    If you are a surviving family member of an American soldier killed in action, the first check you get is a $6,000 direct death benefit, half of which is taxable.

    Next, you get $1,750 for burial costs. If you are the surviving spouse, you get $833 a month until you remarry. And there's a payment of $211 per month for each child under 18. When the child hits 18, those payments come to a screeching halt.


    Keep in mind that some of the people who are getting an average of $1.185 million up to $4.7 milli on are complaining that it's not enough Their deaths were tragic, but for most, they were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. Soldiers put themselves in harms way FOR ALL OF US, and they and their families know the dangers.

    We also learned over the weekend that some of the victims from the Oklahoma City bombing have started an organization asking for the same deal that the September 11 families are getting. In addition to that, some of the families of those bombed in the embassies are now asking for compensation as well.

    You see where this is going, don't you? Folks, this is part and parcel of over 50 years of entitlement politics in this country. It's just really sad. Every time a pay raise comes up for the military, they usually receive next to nothing of a raise. Now the green machine is in combat in the Middle East while their families have to survive on food stamps and live in low-rent housing.

    However, our own US Congress voted themselves a raise. Many of you don't know that they only have to be in Congress one time to receive a pension that is more than $15,000 per month. And most are now equal to being millionaires plus.
    They do not receive Social Security on retirement because they didn't have to pay into the system.
    If some of the military people stay in for 20 years and get out as an E-7, they may receive a pension of $1,000 per month, and the very people who placed them in harm's way receives a pension of $15,000 per month.


    I would like to see our elected officials pick up a weapon and join ranks before they start cutting out benefits and lowering pay for our sons and daughters who are now fighting.





    Hope this hasn't offended anyone.

    PS: Great work on the thread as usual Fred, thanks for all you do!
    The task ahead of you is never as
    great as the POWER behind you.

    Wow! Definitely a good point. And the crazy thing is that they get to vote for their own raises.

    As Mel Brooks said in History of the World: "It's good to be da King."
    “Don't be distracted by criticism. The only taste of success some people have, is when they take a bite out of you.”

    Got woOOot?
