  VA Prescription Policy Update         


Author: JustMe
Date: Dec 31, 2006 22:07

The Department of Veterans Affairs is helping some veterans get generic
prescriptions for half the VA price. Veterans in health care priority
categories 4 through 8 normally must make an $8 co-pay for drugs from the VA
that might be available at the $4 rate being offered by Wal-Mart Stores
Inc., and Target Corp. VA deputy undersecretary William Feeley has told VA
providers they can write prescriptions that can be filled at any
private-sector pharmacy. They cannot transfer the veterans' prescriptions
directly to a private-sector pharmacy, but they can write new prescriptions
if they meet state requirements and cancel existing VA prescriptions.

For the $4 drugs available at Wal-Mart, visit
http://i.walmart.com/i/if/hmp/fusion/genericdruglist.pdf, and for the Target
drugs go to

  VA/Iinnitus Compensation Update         


Author: JustMe
Date: Dec 31, 2006 22:05

The Veterans of Foreign Wars of the U.S (VFW) filed an Amicus, or Friend of
the Court brief 20 DEC in the U.S. Supreme Court on behalf of veteran Ellis
C. Smith. He is seeking to overturn a lower court decision that allowed the
Department of Veterans Affairs to rate tinnitus as a single disability,
regardless of whether it affects one or both ears. VFW Commander-in-Chief
Gary Kurpius, a Vietnam veteran from Anchorage AK said, "The VFW intervened
in this court case to protect the rights of all veterans who were denied
similar claims." Smith, an Army veteran, suffers from service-connected
tinnitus in both ears. The VA approved his initial claim but as a single
disability. Currently, a single tinnitus disability rating is 10%%, which is
compensated at $112 per month. A dual tinnitus...

Yup; great war- one of the most successful in human history; comparable only
to the 1st Gulf War in it's success by any measure.

Fewer people being fed into woodchippers; fewer brides raped by Saddam's
sons; a lot fewer people being killed by gas; fewer regional problems.

Extinguished the hope for his return to power- there can be no more
'insurgency', only 'civil war' or 'terrorist actions'- makes the rules of
engagement a bit easier on us.

  U.S. BUILDING LARGE AND PERMANENT MILITARY PRESENCE IN IRAQ         


Author: The Godfather
Date: Dec 31, 2006 17:13

Thus warns The Godfather:

The Bush Gang is spending the 100's billions of dollars for "Military
Construction".
---> http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/iraq-maps.htm

They have built Americas largest Embassy in the Green Zone,
and one of the largest U.S. Military/Air Bases, in the northern
part of Iraq.
called "Balad Airbase"
---> http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/iraq/balad-ab.htm

And around 30-50 military bases in Iraq to stage U.S. troops.
---> http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/iraq.htm

(Does this look like a short U.S. occupation?)
---> http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/iraq.htm

PROBLEM:
In order to pump Iraqi oil and fight Mid-East insurgents simultaneously,
requires lots of "Boots On The Ground", not Tanks, Helicopters and F-16's.
:-( :-( :-( + + +

  PRESIDENT SADDAM HUSSEIN DID NOT FLEE HIS IRAQ!         


Author: Borat! (TEXT & HTML)
Date: Dec 31, 2006 17:12

Borat! The Mouse Roared:

A real man was hanged December, 30, 2006.

Iraq Prime Minister Maliki, who signed the execution order the
day before
Saddam's hanging, is a long-term member of the Dawa party and had himself
been sentenced to death by Saddam back in 1980 before fleeing the country.

The U.S. appointed Maliki because they knew he had to kill the
(Sunni)
Saddam Hussein before Saddam Hussein killed him, and he was a Shiite
that the U.S. could use to "fight Shi'ite's on Sunni's and Sunni's
on Shi'ite's.".

The U.S. seeks the destruction of Iraq, it's tribalism culture,
and history,
and insert Democracy for the Christians, who will inevitably have to
fight
the radical Islamists, while the U.S. builds large military
fortresses, and
an embassy to try and control the Mid-East oil markets. :-D
