I Just Got A Call

I just got a call from the Missouri Veterans' Association requesting a contribution to assist in the medical care of our veterans. I want to help our veterans; I owe it to them. But I just had to ask why he was asking for help.

"Because the federal health benefits are not quite timely."

"But isn't the federal government best qualified to give medical help to all of this country's citizens?"

"Amen!"

"And yet you are asking for help to improve the medical care for veterans because the federal program is not adequate. Do you see a problem in the consistency in your positions?"

He hung up on me. Now, I wonder why that was.
