Keely,<br> <br> It bothers me, but does not surprise me, that you were a on the school board and yet are unable to read and follow an argument.<br> <br> My father is retired from the military. And he too earned his retirement check. That WAS NOT THE ARGUMENT. Nor was anyone's service to the community, except yours.<br> <br> The argument was that Tom Hansen was attacking me for collecting a government checks to go to school. I don't. <br> <br> I was pointing out Tom Hansen's hypocrisy for attacking people that work for government when he DOES too, and NOT for his military check, but for collecting a disability check when CLEARLY he can and does work. I too could collect a $690 a month plus food stamps, and medical, and disability check, but I can work, so that would be a lie wouldn't it? regardless of what the law entitles me to. There really are people out there that are so disabled they cannot work. Disability checks should go to them. Not people with
disabilities that still function and can contribute at a paying job. <br> <br> _DJA<br><br><b><i>keely emerinemix <kjajmix1@msn.com></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> I've learned that answering him is like feeding stray cats, but I take <br>exception to Donovans saying that Tom Hansen has never had a job that didn't <br>result in a government paycheck.<br><br>Tom is a veteran.
