Ms. Redacted Thanks, at least I have one who would like me if I were President..
Me: I’d love it if you were our president! Dr. Pepper in every cup! But you’d have to really raise the bar if you want to treat the vets better than our current administration. It doesn’t make the news, I think because it was a bipartisan effort, and our political parties are too busy pretending they don’t have anything in common. But here is a quote from a Times article:
“The accessibility with this administration has been outstanding. They listen, they reach out to the veterans’ service organizations, they see the value in communicating,” Peter Gaytan, executive director of the American Legion, the nation’s largest veterans’ organization, with 2.5 million members.
Even amid competing priorities and a deepening recession, Mr. Obama last year managed to secure the biggest increase in funding for the Department of Veterans Affairs in 30 years. And as Congress begins writing spending bills for 2011, despite a spending freeze on some other domestic spending, he’s looking for more aid for veterans.
Mr. Obama’s proposed VA budget for fiscal 2011 asks for $125 billion – a 10 percent jump from what Congress enacted for 2010, which was itself more than 16 percent more than 2009. The discretionary portion of next year’s budget request – the part the administration and Congress have the most direct control over – is up nearly 20 percent since 2009, to total $60.3 billion.”
That’s a lot of jelly beans!
3rd commentor: She would run under the (DrPepperJellyBean4U) Party!!
The commentor suggested vets were treated poorly under our current administration. I provided evidence that indicated otherwise, and worked my friend’s preference for Dr. Pepper and jellybeans into my response so I wouldn’t seem adversarial. But, then the commentor responded only to the joke about the candy and soda.
I might still get the hang of this, but I haven’t yet!
