I have a big problem with John McShame claiming he can't support the GI Bill because he is afraid of losing good servicemembers. Uh, he supports "Don't Ask/Don't Tell" and I was one of those servicemembers discharged simply for being honest about my sexual orientation. If they are so worried about retention then why continue to discharge honorably serving gays and lesbians? Republicans can't keep having it both ways...
Republican hypocrisy is overflowing, I think the nation is starting to wake up and see that they are flip-flopping trying to have it both ways and live double lives.
