Rep. A Weiner (D)NY wrote:It's time that the military reimburse New York for its sacrifice


WHAT?!?!?! :o :?

More than 2,000 city workers have been called up to serve in Iraq or Afghanistan since 9/11, costing the city $65 million, Rep. Anthony Weiner said yesterday.

"For every police officer taken off the streets of New York to serve in Fallujah, New York taxpayers are footing the bill," he said.

He proposed a $40 billion federal revenue-sharing bill that would include aid for US cities that lose manpower due to military leaves.

I detest life-insurance agents; they always argue that I shall some day die, which is not so.
