&lt;p&gt;John McCain
&lt;br /&gt;Speech
&lt;br /&gt;Orlando, FL 08/18/08&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;TRANSCRIPT:
&lt;br /&gt;JOHN MCCAIN: I suppose from my opponent's vantage point, veterans concerns are just one more issue to be spun or worked to advantage. This would explain why he has also taken liberties with my position on the GI Bill. In its initial version, that bill failed to address the number one education request that I've heard from career service members and their families -- the freedom to transfer their benefits to a spouse or a child. The bill also did nothing to retain the young officer and enlisted leaders who form the backbone of our all-volunteer force.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;As a political proposition, it would have much easier for me to have just signed on to what I considered flawed legislation. But the people of Arizona, and of all America, expect more from their representatives than that, and instead I sought a better bill. I'm proud to say that the result is a law that better serves our military, better serves military families, and better serves the interests of our country. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;John McCain
&lt;br /&gt;Town Hall
&lt;br /&gt;Rochester, MI 05/07/08&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;TRANSCRIPT:
&lt;br /&gt;QUESTIONER: ...Senator I'd like to start out by saying as a previously registered Democratic voter who voted for you in the primaries, thank you for your service to our country I truly do appreciate it.  I'm currently a sergeant in the US Marine Corp reserves.   Coming up on the end of my contract, six years. In that time I was activated for several months in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. I also attend Wayne State University for my Doctorate of Pharmacy curriculum, and when it's all said and done next to me I'm going to owe over 70,000 dollars in student loans.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;[...]&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So I'm going to owe 7,000 dollars in student loans and my GI Bill benefits will be exhausted at that point. As you know Senator Jim Webb has introduced the post 911 veterans educational assistance Act to help negate this. Once your bill was brought to your attention, you had a, at a VFW hall meeting, you had stated you hadn't had time to review it yet.  And two to four weeks later you had introduced your own legislation because you thought it would hurt retention. Now, I've done some research, and in 2000 the average payment to an active duty GI Bill was 650 dollars in 2005 that value was increased to 1,034 dollars almost 100%. I've looked at data on retention and in 2005 fiscal year the army air force and Marine Corps reported no reduction in retention, and again in 2006 there was no reduction in retention. In 2007 the department of Defense stated, "retention remains extremely strong in the active force with all services having met or exceeded their aggregate year to date target". Based on averages from the College Board, they say that the average cost of attendance is 17,000 dollars per year at a public university. Under your Bill it will provide, for that same time, 12,000 dollars leaving that veteran $5,000 in student loans. And over the course of a four-year degree, $20,000 in student loans still. Here at Oakland University it mimics that.  Its $17,000 and this is the average university. At the VFW, [McCain motions for speaker to wrap it up] ok.  You stated how veterans of previous wars are treated, is treated is directly related to our ability to recruit the finest of Americans to serve in our Nations military.   Yes, 79% of members of our military don't have diplomas right now and 15% have criminal waivers.  Senator, my question is, when are we going to start rewarding our veterans for their service by providing them adequate college education instead of punishing them with college loans?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;MCCAIN: . . .  We don't have a big enough Army and Marine Corps today, and you know that probably far better than I do. . .Including the strain on our guard and reserve is probably greater than it's been at anytime, in certainly, probably since World War II by any measurement. I worry about recruitment, and that means added incentives for educational benefits, pay, ect.   I worry about retention. A lot of young officers at the rank of captain, as you know, that have reached the end of their obligated service, we're having some difficulty in that retention.  The non-commissioned officer.  All these things, I'm not telling you, but I'm trying to tell our participants here who might not be as familiar as you are.  First of all let me say that I am proud to have received the highest award from every veterans organization in America.  Not because of any reason but for my many years of dedication to the veterans and the care and affection and appreciation that I have for them. . . I also want to increase educational benefits, and do whatever it takes to both recruit and retain men and women in the military.  I have some differences in that view.  Senator Lindsey Graham, who is a reserve and has remained in the Air Force reserve and serves his active duty in Iraq, is the major sponsor of this legislation.  He shares that same dedication. . .We will, I hope, be able to work out any differences that we have.   But I want to, of course, reward the person who stays in the military longer with greater incentives to stay in as opposed to someone who only staying a few years, because I also want Americans to serve, but I also want dedicated Americans to serve as long as possible. And I will do what ever is necessary for what I've done my entire life, and my family for generations before me and generations after me, to do everything I can to help the veterans of this nation, and the men and women who are serving, to get the educational benefits that they need and deserve.  [...]&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;John McCain
&lt;br /&gt;Town Hall
&lt;br /&gt;Baton Rouge, LA 06/04/08&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;TRANSCRIPT:
&lt;br /&gt;QUESTIONER: There's a new GI Bill that's being proposed, I wondered what your opposition was to it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;JOHN MCCAIN: There's a, there's, first of all, we need to increase the educational benefits for a veterans. We all know that. The educational benefits have not kept up with the costs of education in America. And so we're going to have to dramatically increase it. There's some people in this room that recall, and know, that the GI Bill, following World War II was probably one of the most beneficial programs, not only for the veterans that took advantage of it, but also for America because we educated an entire generation of Americans. I want two things to happen. One, is that once a person has remained in the military for a period of time, then that person can transfer those educational benefits to a spouse or family member. Because, as you know, a lot of military people, most of them now have families. And they want to educate their children and their spouses and their families may seek education. So we want to have a point where they can transfer those benefits to family members and to their children. The other thing is, I think my fellow veterans would agree, the great strength of the American military is not so much our officer corps, of which we are proud, but the great strength of the American military is our noncommissioned officer. [applause] They're the ones that&#8212;they're the leaders and the ones that do the sacrificing and I'll say it with all due respect ot the officer corps but it's the noncommissioned officer that almost makes the British military and the American military unique in the world because they're the true leadership and background. So I want to increase those educational benefits as the members of the military stay in and remain in the military so we will retain this core of vital leadership. And right now, the legislation has no incentive to do so. You get the same benefits after like three years as you do after twelve years or more. Um, I respect Sen. Webb a great deal, he is a combat veteran and a person who sacrificed a lot for our country. I believe we can sit down together and give transferability of these educational benefits and also increase retention of these very, let's be very clear, it's very expensive these days to train a member of the military with the equipment and the technology that we have to train them in and so that we can keep more people in. There's a study that shows that retention would drop by 16% if we didn't put incentives for people remain in the military. I want to work on, I've offered to sit down with Sen. Webb and others and there's no reason why we shouldn't be able to work this out. And I hope that you will support our position on both transferability of educational benefits as well as incentives to retain people in the military so they can make a career out of an honorable profession.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Well, looks like another back-stabbing assault on US troops by those they trust to look out for them. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Sunday he is against a Senate proposal to give battle-weary US troops in Iraq more rest between tours of duty. Gates also said that he would recommend that Bush veto the proposal if passed. Incredible!&lt;/p&gt;Watch Gates hesitate and stumble his way through Chris Wallace&amp;#39;s softballs and then watch Joe Biden clearly and articulately lay waste to Gates&amp;#39;s position.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;   When are those Republicans who claim to care for and support the troops so much going to wake-up and realize that &lt;strong&gt;no one supports the troops less than this administration!&lt;/strong&gt; Inadequate body armor and Humvees, atrocious conditions for the wounded at Walter Reed and contaminated drinking water supplied by Halliburton&amp;#39;s KBR subsidiary for 60 million dollars, demonstrate the contempt that the White House has had all along for our military in Iraq. Not to mention sending them to die for an immoral, unjustifiable war based on lies, oil and the enrichment of Bush and Cheney&amp;#39;s war profiteer buddies.&lt;p&gt;This is just another reprehensible example of the same.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Celebrating the Democrats sweep of the US House and Senate, some races were so close that Stephen Colbert was unable to tell a viewer the bad news. The closeness of some Senate races also left me with a couple questions for you about the political effect of YouTube.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We learn that&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;1) Joe Lieberman loves bipartisanship. He really loves it. I am guessing if there were a bipartisan consensus to say,&amp;nbsp;force his good pal&amp;nbsp;Bill Kristol grab a gun and stand post in Iraq, Lieberman would&amp;nbsp;vote for it (or perhaps, if there were a disclosure order to force him to tell us the retirement plan Karl Rove offered him to re-elect him last year with GOP money).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;2) Jim Inhofe, who has singlehandedly proven that the theory of Intelligent Design cannot be accurate, explains the phraseology of Okahoma.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;3) John Thune (R-Wimp) is scared of Jim Webb.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;4) Diane Feinstein rightfully thinks the Republicans must be &amp;quot;smoking something.&amp;quot; Hint: It starts with &amp;quot;c&amp;quot; and ends with &amp;quot;rack.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5)&amp;nbsp;Bob Menendez tell President Bush&amp;nbsp;to &amp;quot;re-read&amp;quot; the Constitution.&amp;nbsp;We appreciate it&amp;nbsp;Senator, but&amp;nbsp;surely you must know he hasn&amp;#39;t read anything longer than a candy bar wrapper in his entire life.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
