Aware of it, but what can you do about it???  I quit wasting my time communicating to my elected officials because they will do ONLY what benefits them.  Our Congress is useless (gutless) to stand up to the POTUS and his regime.  It's all for show my friend.....

As a former servicemember, you really don't want to hear what I have to say. If I were to get started, DanW may have to ban me to get me to stop.

Petition signed. 

What a gutless move and slap in the face to the men & women that protect our Country.

The same day this is reported in Stars and Stripes (03-08-2013) this is what the Colorado Legislature was up to...

http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/local-news/final-approval-expected-for-bill-allowing-lower-tuition-for-colorado-illegal-immigrant-students

Bill has now been passed and is moving to the governor who is expected to sign...

So, It's NO tuition for servicemen and women....    LOWER tuition for illegal immigrant students in Colorado.  This is why the trust of government is lower that whale poop and that is on the bottom of the ocean...

Is anyone really surprised by this? Within 5 years there will be a mandatory tricare deduction on your LES. Mark my words.

In other words, service-members will have to pay for health insurance.

You're not too far off.  A friend of mine (who's in the Guards) said their insurance is going up 100%...on top of loosing their tuition assistance.

Why stop there?  Think of the money they could save charging servicemen for the flight to their deployment areas? Maybe a mail fee too! I cannot find the word to express the degree of shame I feel for the way this government sticks it to people who cannot dispute or refuse what is done to them, simply for committing the crime of pledging themselves to their belief in this country.

Voting doesn't matter. The Electoral Idiots will vote for whoever bought them drinks last night.

I think if a person who ran and is willing to get dirty would be elected and do the correct thing. It the belief of our vote won't make a difference is the reason obama got reelected.
