I want to use part of the subvention in whatever we go forward with. But my fear is if we go ahead with this, we may prevent an overall support for a bill that is going to help all veterans. I want to tell you something. We told you that when you voted to go into Somalia, we have spent $2.4 billion into Haiti. We went to Iraq, we went to Sudan and bombed an aspirin factory with the White House, and all of these things, $200 billion. We could have more than paid for all of this. But yet, your liberal left on the Democrat side, oh, we need to go into Haiti, we need to go into Somalia, we need to go into all these other places. We said there would be a cost. I do not care so much about the cost of this that I want to take care of the veterans, but there is limited dollars in what you do.
