He’s one of the biggest patriots I’ve seen and as a veteran I have nothing but the utmost respect for Jon .

This is an example on why suicide rates among the disabled are at an epidemic proportion across many demographics.

Can't really say Capitalism controlled by corporations and lobbyists works any better. Average wait time at the VA is 7-8 years. The process becomes unconstitutional after the first year, being a legal process handled by lawyers and judges. They have no motivation to decide on claims quickly, veterans get zero interest on backpay regardless how long the claim takes to decide favorably. They need to keep mortality rates up and that is why our leaders have no intention of fixing the system they already know is broken. While it doesn't work for the population, it is working for someone. Whoever those people are, our leaders would rather challenge and wrong us than protect our rights from whatever that group is, which is supposed to be their tax-paid purpose. They could fix these issues; yet, stubbornly refuse to. I've proven it with my own lawsuit, Mr. Stewart has proven it with this documented Congressional visit. Jon Stewart if you see this, following in my footsteps will help us solve this problem. If you are that mad about all this and believe it's time something gets done, there is no other realistic alternative so far. Anyone affected by such issues caused by this government, can utilize the option I came up with to mitigate problems with a 60 year history of murdering countless...often times causing victims such economic or social turmoil that they take their own lives.

I think you can add to this and say a true patriot does not play team sports with politics. A true patriot focuses on the issues that face the common citizen and addresses them, regardless of what the stance of any political party is. Jon Stewart is undoubtedly a patriot, as he fights for what he thinks is right, regardless of his personal benefit. Politicians for the most part are not patriots. The only one I can think of who was in recent years, would be John McCain, who often had voted against his own party for what he believed was right.

For one, the same dumb voters would just vote in new corrupt politicians. cut one head off, ten more grow to replace it. and secondly, term limits would slow down government even more and leave us with corrupt AND inexperienced politicians. and good politicians would be forced out by term limits and then potentially replaced with somone worse.

[@PlayNiceFolks]

if you want some kind of electoral reform, you need ranked ballots, tiered voting. which means that we wouldn't have to always settle for the lesser of two evils. Example: if we had 3 canidates (A, B, and C), we would vote with ballots ranking each candidate as 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. That way, If I preferred candidate A and B and list them in my ballot as "1st vote for Canidate A, 2nd for Canidate B"..then if Canidates B and C ended up in the top two positions, My vote wouldn't be wasted on Canidate A.

Congress, overpaid losers that would have been fired years ago in the real business sectors. Vote em out, folks. Vote them out.

[@larapalma3744]

@MrPippinsays Absolutely!

Steve Simmons the days of voting are long gone! The sooner Americans realize this and take action the better. Put the fear of the people back into government

Less than a 100 years ago they'd be hung as traitors. Hangings and men exercising their 2nd amendment rights is what kept the government in check.

Taxation without representation. We remember the last time that happened. Time to kick these gutless cowards out of office.

[@chasdegeofroy3091]

I agree well said we have a government that does not work for the tax money they take from us!

[@Tcivan]

MrBrooxy we are experiencing policy without representation. Left or right. People just want to live, work and have a future for their kids. LEFT OR RIGHT. There is way more holding all of us together, having in common more goals, and aspirations.

MAD MAN in all fairness, he watched those people get hurt and die in his home town. He lives right in the area where the twin towers collapsed. I can see in his statements how much this hurts him and rightfully so.

The fact that they have show up there to beg is f..king insane

[@classicrocklover5615]

Why is this process so damn hard and take so damn long? Simple - the longer they wait, the more die off, the cheaper any allocation becomes.

[@stanleywheeler404]

Yes you're ABSOLUTELY RIGHT about THAT !!
