It was an unfortunate circumstance
that this website was off-line
for the entire duration of the
Senator Larry Craig scandal topping
the news. There was no way for
us to get postings out on the
former rat guy head of the
Senate Veterans Affairs Committee.
So sorry.

This guy drew fire from me more
than once, and raised red flags
all over the place as my own
laser guns passed over his head
but nobody wanted to listen on
what an off-kilter Jacko this
guy was.

Larry Craig was the guy who
forced a vote on us, hastily
at the end of 2006 just before
the new majority Congress took
over, forcing Veterans to pay
full lawyer fees to attorney's
representing our disability
claims. Yeah Right, Geez thanks
Larry -- what's next, a law
forcing us to pay Exxon double
fees for gas while you grandstand
and tout it as a Veterans law ??

We have called a national boycott
on this Bill even now, while the
Parrot-Head veterans media continues
to pick up his lame and sorry
press releases to nowhere touting
this Bill as something legitimate
to Veterans. It isn't.

Do in all ways, continue to boycott
it and not use this statute.
We would like to see it fully
REPEALED.

The Larry Craig Veterans Lawyers
for Fees Act is a disaster to
Veterans everywhere, and we all
knew it at the time, and DID put
on a heavy heavy opposition to it
as soon as we retrieved the language
on it when it was passing through
votes in Congress.

We can only stand around and
guess now, just WHO Larry Craig
submitted this Bill in salute
to and under WHAT circumstances
the Bill was originated under.
Perhaps another bathroom stall,
maybe ?? It sure wasn't for US
Veterans and that remains a point
of record.

So from where I sit, the
circumstances and departure
of Larry Craig could not have
been more fitting. A guy
finding himself in a bad
situation, maybe not necessarily
of his own doing, and suddenly
having to spring LARGE for a
lawyer after cheaply bungling
his own case without one.

Hey Larry, how does it feel to
have to pay thousands to a lawyer
without any government assistance
for something that is unjust and unfair
to begin with ??
Inquiring
sick Veterans really do want to
know.

The Senate Veterans Affairs
Committee should now go behind
this great national farce with
a pooper-scooper and quickly
arrange for the full REPEAL
of the Craig law forcing sick
and impoverished Veterans to
pay large and ridiculous fees
to Lawyers for disability
representation which is largely
caused by shoddy VA hiring
practices, by incompetent employment
practices, and by the full shutoff
of all Law Enforcement agencies
so that Veterans CAN'T report how
their case rulings are being
deliberately FALSIFIED by VA
Raters (without any prosecution
to them whatsoever).

That would be the justice which
one might expect to see now
that the Senate doorstep has
been swept clean of Dirty Larry
and his nut farm circumstances
which can only be characterized
as BIZARRE --- No Larry, don't
explain it to me --- it was
a bathroom and you can stop
right there !!!
