Stan,

You are obviously one of those who are desperate to believe the B******i story that has been pretty well exposed as a factoid.

And you sir are a head in the sand, nose up his butt, bleeding heart Obama asswipe. As well as being a complete I***T

It has yet to be determined whether Jackson is receiving the $8,700 disability money and he can't get retirement from his job for several years:

Absolutely right, I found conflicting stories on the disability money, but he does not collect his pension until the age of 65. The same as all congressmen/senators and govt. employees.

It seems reality is much different from the first version of this..

What made several people so manically, desperately robotically fast to accept it as true when they didn't check it out and it sounded so absurd ?

A person can draw disability while in prison? Could we take his money to pay for his incarceration?

Generally, an ordinary person....say a disabled Vet....will have his disability withheld and that amount not returned upon release. It just depends on who you are, doesn't it?

And, generally, a disability is given when it is proven that that individual is disabled. As for a pension, my husband received a military pension when he became disabled, at age 54. In all honesty and t***hfulness and from experience helping Vets get their "due", it simply comes down to who you know, who is helping you, and the strings you pull......and influence.

I helped a Nam Vet who had wandered the streets of San Antonio for over 20 years hoping for help from the VA. He'd been a door gunner....a real one....it was his MOS.....and received the Distinguished Flying Cross as a private....and I got his disability for him in 4 months....only because I gave the VA holy hell, and knew a few people. And, after all, how would the VA have looked on national TV with a story like that? Not very good.

You sound upset with me. Is it something I said like telling you the facts rather than the bull s**t? No matter how angry your get, it won't change the facts.

Yours was about the most intense rage and vile language I have gotten from true believers when I have exposed their fantasies. I want you to know that I forgive you for the insults and foul language.

I am not defending this man, but it seems he did not pull strings or get speceal treatment. He was declared disabled and the monthly amount is the percent of his pay which every federal employee would get. (percentage wise) That is the law.

This went around several months ago and a lady had a very good handle on how and why it worked out that way. Was not AuntiE but I think a friend of hers who went overseas for several months and have no idea if she has returned.

Knowing what we know we don't know is a sign of wisdom of age.

The amount of disability and pension is determined by his pay.....no doubt about that. The only question is if he receives it while in prison. Many I know do not....they do while in county jail, but not in prison. Will be interesting to see if he does.

Iggy,

I think you are trying to say you believe something about the B******i faux scandal is true after all the partisan and non partisan investigations have found nothing. I also think you are trying to say that you find something about the B******i story funny. However, your apparent attempt to be cute did not help us know for sure what your take on the situation is or if you could be articulate if you wanted to be.

The "B******i myth" is the funny part. Obviously, a "myth" did not burn our embassy. I want to know where the Marines were. That is a part of our charter. Only those with something to hide would try to pretend nothing happened in B******i. There is no "myth"; There IS a "cover-up". We don't have to know what's being covered when our own government lies so awkwardly about the entire situation. All we have to do is recognize the lies. We will probably never get to the t***h. The least we can do is acknowledge their lies.
There you go. Articulate enough for you, or do I have to go all word-nerd. But wait! Since you didn't recognize that the "myth" was supposed to be the funny part, you probably wouldn't understand anyway.

I read it as well. No vile language. No intense rage. Do you understand the words? Make up your own meanings? Must be a liberal.

I don't need or want or care about your forgiveness I just want you to be willing to open your eyes to all the lies and coverups and misinformation you espouse due to your ignorance of following and believing the misinformation lying MSM. If you were to actually have a mind with which to reason, you would change your rhetoric.

Again you spew your liberal bias. There were people k**led, the video wasn't responsible. There is STRONG evidence that it was a terrorist act. There is irrefutable evidence that the WH knew about it and spun a story about a video. All of these are on record, but you and your kind will continue to deny that Obama is a lying piece of cow dung. If you want to keep your insurance you can keep your insurance, period. The attacks were a reaction to a h**eful video on You Tube.
Same liar, different lie. But your god Obama never lies.

You say Obama lies. I am shocked, shocked, shocked to hear the accusation that there is a politician that lies. The first thing you know some politicians is going to take us into a war based on his lies. 186,000 men, women and children could die if that were to happen. Wait, that did happen.
