It's called the Clay Hunt Bill - and it might get passed, in this lame duck session of Congress.

It is to prevent veteran suicides and is supported by McCain (R) and Blumenthal (D) among others. One of the few Bills this Do-Nothing Congress should get done before the year is out.

Finally, something good could come out of all this mess.

America loves a winner!


weirdo, you mean Harry Reid has completely destroyed the credibility of Congress, by being such a colossal a-hole.

A bill to prevent suicides ?


good luck w/ that.


The VA has been one massive federal suicide machine for 1000's of brave Vets. Do away with that, send 'em to real doctors, and you'll drastically cut suicide rates.

That dummy doesn't understand that the Senate is one of the two parts of Congress. He doesn't know that Congress is the House and the Senate. And the other dummy before him doesn't know that the House passed over 300 bills that went to the Senate where Harry Reid let them die without even a vote on any of 'em. Obama has not had to veto anything (2 bills in 6 years) because Reid protected him from having to explain his potential vetoes.

That's gonna change starting in January. Obama's gonna need a bigger desk to handle the mountain of legislation that will be comin' his way.

Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.


What do yo two think is in the bill? Just a quick impression will do.




SAGAN: We are releasing vast quantities of carbon dioxide, increasing the greenhouse effect. It may not take much to destabilize the Earth's climate, to convert this heaven, our only home in the cosmos, into a kind of hell.
