<description>&quot;REPEAT A LIE LONG ENOUGH IT STILL DOSN'T become true.&quot;

And that is what you scumbags who want presumption should learn. You keep repeating the same lie over and over - &quot;We were exposed.&quot; BS! You weren't and therefore you are liars. See how it works?...</description>

<description>Please contact your legislators and tell them there is NO evidence that bluewater sailors were harmed by herbicides and that there is NO evidence that Agent Orange was used in Thailand or Guam in quantities that necessitate presumption. Insist that they look at the VALIDATED scientific evidence that clearly shows these individuals are liars and cheats seeking to defraud the government. Tell them you OPPOSE this bill because it is wrong and that you want them to vote AGAINST it should it ever come to the floor....</description>

<description>Over my lifetime I have worked with a lot of folks who have reason to complain – the unemployed, the homeless, folks on welfare, terminally ill patients in a hospice. And not one of these groups has the intensity of whining that a bunch of veterans can generate. I really suspect that the veterans whine can be heard in outer space. It is that loud. Why don’t all of you moaning assholes take a break and go crawl in a hole someplace. Give the rest of us some time to recuperate from your constant pissing and moaning....</description>

Reading the intellectual responses of the welfare crowd is sooo... entertaining. I have no doubt that there should be some sort of litmus test to be able to vote. Clearly some folks are unable to make critical decisions....</description>

<description>But you see - or rather you don't, as you are not only stupid but also incredibly self-centered which causes blindness to anyone's position but your own - congress people are people first and are affected by the lives of their constituents.

And being at least semi-intelligent beings, they are able to see past your purported studies when faced with the reality of people with the same stories with minor variations.

This is what scares you, I think, and what makes you have to work so hard and nastily on this site and others to try and convince people that you're right. 

In the long run, human decency wins out. It may take awhile to get everyone to play nice, but it will happen. How many sponsors does these AO-related bills have again? I understand that you ascribe these signatures to a scam on the part of congress, but you see scams everywhere, don't you? 

Except your own DM2 claim, of course....</description>

<description>It has been found that Veterans exposed to Agent Orange while on ships have more catastrophic health effects that a directly exposed person. W D Gault and others are correct. I would like to know who is paying Andy Johnson to write a bunch of garbage....</description>

<description>&quot;It has been found that Veterans exposed to Agent Orange while on ships have more catastrophic health effects that a directly exposed person&quot;

Perhaps, but it is common knowledge that there is a study supporting just about any loonie theory that might be thought up. The real question is whether it is statistically significant, is capable of being replicated and whether has it been peer reviewed. 

In this instance there is no evidence that it meets the requirements Congress has placed on the Secretary in accepting research as valid....</description>

<description>&quot;I would like to know who is paying Andy Johnson to write a bunch of garbage.&quot;

Unfortunately, no one.  It would actually be better if someone was, because at least that would explain his persistence and lack of compassion.

He is actually a Vietnam veteran who receives disability for Agent Orange DM2. 

This is what is so intolerable about his posts.  He is receiving monthly taxpayer money for a condition that is largely due to lifestyle choices, and one that is view negatively on the Veterans Benefit Network, another forum he frequents where he regularly hands out abuse to other veterans.

He's a poor excuse for a human being and if he wasn't so nasty I'd actually pity him....</description>

<description>This Bill, H.R. 2254, has no merit and neither does S 1939 because there is no qualified evidence that dioxin ever left the land mass of Vietnam and/or was ever available in the offshore environment in sufficient quantity to harm units operating there. Despite all the protestations, the IOM has been unable to find any.

This Bill proposes to make a mockery of veterans disability compensation by compensating those that were not disabled by military service. In other words, a handout. Something for nothing.

This Bill, more appropriately, should be called the Veterans Handout Bill. 

Every disabled veteran should be outraged that some folks are seeking to use veterans compensation for personal gain....</description>
