via mal contends - Bears repeating from headline: Tom Petri (R-Fond du Lac) is the lone Republican Wisconsin House member to vote for the new GI Bill.

Good for Tom Petri; bad for the House Republicans. Republicans talk a good game about supporting our troops; they do not walk the walk.

I mean is the thought that we honor troops who serve merely one or two tours of duty really that repulsive to Republicans?

Final vote
Voted for (256)
Voted against (166)
Did not vote (12)
