Today we got a letter from our Congressman, Robin Hayes, saying that

ask your friends to purr that the bozos realize that Rob doesn't
have a hang nail and needs full disability? The change in status
would mean $700 more a month, Mandy's and my college would be
covered by the VA, and Rob would be able to get more of the things
he needs.


It doesn't sound greedy. Veterans risk their lives for a pretty
meager pay; the least we can do is give them adequate benefits.
