Well, Actually, No, it isn't funny at all.
I don't think you've been paying attention. Only the left has been protesting the Bush administration's VA cuts. Maybe a few Republicans have spoken up about combat pay cuts... but it's been an issue for the left. 1/3 of military families qualify for some form of Federal welfare assistance because of inadequate pay.
