Former Republican Veterans Chairman Lashes Out at Politics That Hurt Veterans
This is the opinion piece by Rep. Chris Smith (R-NJ) Smith has been there for veterans Other issues No. He was replaced by the Fat-man J Dennis Hastert when he attacked Dubba's Budget on Veterans. Do I like this guy NO. But he was known as a true friend to Veterans.

"As a result of that vote,my Republican colleagues who joined me lost funding for their district projects,I lost my chairmanship and -worst of all- veterans lost much-needed resources to provide essential medical care" part of his statement in the article

1. i liked smith as chairman
Pence of Indiana is a real asshole as ranking member now. as is Roberts in the senate. 2008 we will get rid of more neocon trash, hope its not to late.
