Use Disability as excuse 2-09-08

It would be easy for me to claim that my disabilities were the cause of my problems. I do have a TBI Traumatic Brain Injury. I remember nothing before my 17 birthday. I have problems reading and writing. I slip in and out of reality at any moment with out warning. Some things I remember, others I forget with in seconds. I have a broken back which limits my ability to do things. I have a loss of hearing in both ears from being blown of the runway more than once. The percentage of each disability when added together is 120%. I received two of the three injuries during separate combat support missions during the Vietnam Conflict. I am a U.S. Marine.

Paul Newell wrote a note describing our responsibilities to our country. Paul is a Canadian citizen. I appreciate Paul’s letter and I wish many more people would write and tell the news media, publishers and editors that I stand for a cause, a very important cause that is and will devastate every United States citizen if not corrected. Freedom of speech and the manner in which the U.S. treats returning Veterans is appalling. What I write is the truth and I have lived through what I talk about.

When a citizen speaks out, should a U.S. Congress woman from NH have the right to use her political connections to put me in a nut house. Should the VA be allowed to use my medical care as leverage to stop my free speech. These are criminal acts committed by government officials that we the people trust. It should not matter if I wrote a letter to the editor that said disparaging remarks about someone. I did not write such a letter. My letters tell the truth and the letters that I write the news refuses to print. Censorship by the news media has allowed these government officials and judges to violated our most power full laws the Constitution. I have not violated one law but to stop me the government has used the trusted power of government in a manner to use my military inflicted disabilities to cause pain and suffering on me. I have stood through all the crap because I am a U.S. Marine. If when in battle things did not look good one does not retreat. You attack and fight to keep the United States of America free and safe until death. Shea-Porter and Mark Levenston by using my military medical condition to harm me by stopping my medical care constitudes a crime of the gravest magnitude. The government is covering these crimes up.

I write letters every day. My letters may not be the best. My letters may some times leave people confused. I do not have the abilities that others have. You all use excuses to avoid speaking up. When citizens, editors, publishes and others are intimidated by government officials this just reinforces my words. You are afraid.

I am a 100% disabled U.S. Marine and every U.S. citizen should be outraged by what my words expose. U.S. congress woman Shea-Porter and VA Director of NH Veterans medical care openly and with intent to harm took medical care away from a U.S. citizen. They knowingly harm a 100% disabled U.S. Marine for their own self gain and you the United States of America think so little of those that gave their lives for you that you allow returning Veterans to go homeless on the street. Google my name and address and read my letters. Learn the condition NH and the U.S. place the children that gave every thing for you, in. Then, I ask you to do as Paul Newell did. Write
