		<description>That&#039;s right Tom, It is earned by those of us that have served and given to our country. Not like a bunch of welfare leaches that just take because they can.</description>

		<description>The VA is not socialized medicine.  It is a benefit that is earned by those who have served their country by offering their life in its defense.

Quite different from an entitlement which is not earned.</description>

		<description>Me, too.  I guess he&#039;s not taking questions.  The editors of this site are letting themselves be used as a political billboard by candidates who don&#039;t believe in blogs.</description>

		<description>Cool in Iowa but record hot in Texas.  

There weren&#039;t 6 billion people on the earth when the ice melted off Iowa.  People will die from similar climate change today.  Don&#039;t be so heartless.

We are already playing Mother Nature, Woodrow.  THat&#039;s the whole point.  We have to clean up our act.  Don&#039;t be so self-righteous</description>

		<description>Wow jerry you should have been around when all the ice melted off Iowa. Then you could have harped that tune then. Ice melts it happens we haven&#039;t been here long enough to know all the facts. Like why the glaciers over the U.S. melted off when there was no so called green house gases created by man then? This planet has taken care of itself for millions of years before and probably after were long gone. Ice comes and it goes. Last thing i want is some jerk like Al Gore getting rich and man trying to play mother nature or trying to control it. The nut at the UN said if we dont act we will have fires, floods and droughts, well we already have those so whats going to change other than the money pouring out of our pockets to some smuck ahole making him super rich while we sit in our cold houses in a Iowa winter freezing because we cant afford to turn up the heat. I cant explain why the ice is melting off but its been a record cool summer following the coldest day this past January i ever seen in my town -27 below 0.</description>

		<description>Mr. Funk,

Two more questions: 

 How can I tell the &quot;real Americans&quot; from the other citizens?  What are you saving the country from  when you promise to save our country?</description>
