The new G. I. bill

In short, we need a new one. It doesn't matter whether you support the war fanatically, or think the absolute best thing to do would be to get the hell out now, you cannot deny that we as a nation have an obligation to do all we can to honor those who put their lives on the line to defend those of us who were too afraid, too physically weak, or too against the war to go and fight.
I laugh when I hear McCain talk about how we can't afford the bill's $5 billion budget. what is the cost of the war now... $175 billion per month? or year? I can't remember exactly, but either way a new GI bill is a drop in the bucket compared to the war. And this coming from a war veteran... very disappointed in you, McCain. Very disappointed.
