  Hmmm, this is a sore bone with me.  I see politicians griping about how 
they should be given a pension after serving "a public service", but when I 
look at my military pension and retiree benifits, I see them getting smaller 
ever damn DAY!  The closure of VA hospitals, the reduction of benifits for 
retiree's and just getting screwed in general by the very same politicains 
who are whining for a Pension.
  Screw them!  Let them do the same thing I have to do, even after military 
service and an earned pension.
  Get a damn job, ya bunch of free-loading slackers.
  You wanna do a "public service"?  Call Dr. Kevorkian.
  You need a pension like I need another hole put in me.
  Damn politican leeches.
  Sorry, but after the last 4 years of cuts that hit me, but not the 
Politicains, and I live in a low-rent area, and they live in guarded 
mansions.  I eat inexpensive food, and they eat banquets.
  Screw 'em.  I'd like to see them actually work.
    Mad as hell.....
