Senate Democrats Refuse to Fund Veterans Benefits Again

The Powerline title I sourced this from says it all: “Once Again, Democrats Vote to Cut Veterans’ Benefits in Order to Enable Fraud By Illegal Aliens.”

“Feeding” the dependents of illegal immigrants who may not even be in America is more important to Senate Democrats than funding Veterans benefits.

That is offensive enough, but what I found interesting was the emotional appeal, from the left, devoid of logic.  How dare you cut this funding.

The same Democrats made the cold and calculating cut to veterans benefits that Republicans were trying to restore.  The Republican amendment would also have funded the unemployment benefits extension they wanted so badly.

The end result: Senate Democrats voted (again) to keep the fraud and waste and to say screw you to veterans and taxpayers.
