When my oldest son, a Marine, left for war and crossed the border from Kuwait into Iraq in March 2003 I started writing my conscience. After two tours that young combat veteran, my first born son, is now permanently disabled suffering from post traumatic stress disorder and his mother is now an ardent peace activist. Today I am active with Veterans for Peace, Military Families Speak Out and on the board of Rural Organizing Project Also, I am CEO of Rogue River Wind, Ltd and the inventor of a low profile wind turbine incorporating a high bandwidth generator developed with Portland State University.

Olbermann – Vets get the shaft from McCain

September 5th, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

I have written about this many times in the past. GOP congress people consistently score very poorly on veterans benefits and McCain is no exception. Democrats vote yea on behalf of veterans more than twice as often as Republicans.

    It’s more of the same……….from new and old sources. Appalling that the Republicans can continue to ignore those they supposedly support. We must honor those that have served–individually–until the government is forced to fulfill the will of the people, by the people and for the people.
