WASHINGTON -- The House on Thursday approved a new GI Bill, with a significant expansion of veterans' education benefits, as part of a war-spending measure that will pay for military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan into next year and also provide aid for the jobless.The country should be proud of Jim Webb and congressional Democrats for fighting the tough fight for Iraq and Afghanistan veterans and those Americans who are having trouble finding work.
Thank you Senator Webb for remembering and fighting for our fellow veterans.
And we won't forget John McCain and half of the other Republicans in the Senate fought against you. They have no shame.
