January 3, 2007 Should be ?Veterans Day?

[SuperScout]

Thanks for confirming what I wrote earlier. If you will recall, inflation during the Carter years was sky-high, and obvioulsy it took a few years of the Reagan administartion to bring things under control, lower the inflation rate, and ergo the VA COA increase. And I also acknowledge your continuing paranoia in alleging that it was some wascally wepublican tactic to get GHWB elected. The COA increases are pegged to the inflation rate, perhaps not on a one-on-one basic, but close. The drastic increases during the Carter years only demonstrates what an incompetent boob he was, and still is BTW!
