Republicans Hate Crippled Veterans

How else to explain the Wall Street Journal's James Taranto's attacks on what he calls the crippled veteran ploy: the use of crippled veterans to elicit assistance in pushing a political program? Remember, sympathy for the veteran is just about the only advantage veterans have in securing the benefits they have supposedly been guaranteed, and are often systematically deprived of - just ask anyone involved in veterans' organizations! How brave of Taranto to attack veterans' only effective tool!
