Obama: US must have veterans' backs

 WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Barack Obama is marking Veterans Day by making it his mission to ensure America has the back of its veterans.

In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama says now that more veterans are coming home from wars, the U.S. must serve them as well. He's promoting programs to hire and educate veterans.

Obama says the U.S. has made progress in putting veterans to work but must do more. He says the country benefits from veterans' unmatched skill, dedication and courage.

Obama recorded his address in Washington before leaving Friday for New Orleans and Miami.

In the Republican address, Rep. Todd Young of Indiana is sharing stories of Americans he says were hurt by Obama's health care law. Young says he wants the penalty for not having insurance delayed.

If you like your veteran's services, you can keep your veteran's services.

Is this the same Barack Obama who lists veterans as terrorists?  Is this the same Barack Obama who has called the members of the military Nazis and baby killers?  Excuse me if I refrain from believing his "message." :peeonobama:

Two messages, the Fuehrer's false message and the message by his henchman.

I have donated money to various Veterans programs. We should not need most of those programs, but since the government doesn't follow through on its commitment to the military, we have to pick up the slack. In other words, we are paying twice, particularly for the wounded soldiers. It's disgraceful.
