    I talked to a woman today who wants to hire me to help her husband get social security disability. They are going to hire me.

    They have been married 11 years. Her husband is a smart college educated guy who was working on his masters. Nice educated guy according to her.

    H, who was in the special forces, did 4 tours in Iraq. Lots of injuries. A couple of knee surgeries, a back injury and other injuries. A lot of physical pain.

    H then did a 5th tour in Afghanistan. He came back a mental and physical wreck. Spent quite a bit of time in a mental hospital. Military let him sort of hang around until he got his 20th year, but he really did not do too much of any real work.

    Discharged from the military a few w.i. the last year. Was never violent before. Has assaulted several people. Punched his 16 yr old step daughter. Is paranoid and thinks people in restaurants etc. are looking at him because he is Hispanic. Wife is separated and afraid of him, but loves him and is still trying to help him out. I talked to man, he is nervous and afraid to make minor decisions without his wife's advice.

    Thanks, Dubya. Put a bumper sticker on your car for him, chickenhawks.
