Totally agree. It seems that the real issue is that the false claims are essentially being used to commit fraud, which is most definitely a crime.

Colorado can still quote the constitution?

It is called FRAUD AND IS BULLSH!T!!! It takes away from the real hereos that actually earned the awards and the ability to call themselves US Servicemen.

I think I'll call myself a democratic US congressman, see if I can get away with tax fraud...

Good one wwestern. Some of us still read it and appreciate that it is the framework by which we are SUPPOSED to be governed.

I don't see how openly commiting fraud for profit, whether monetary or personal advancement, can be protected as freedom of speech. This makes no sense. The sensible recourse, to me, is that any and all funds or positions obtained in such a case should be re-imbursed to those defrauded, the position forfeited and all salary recompensed. Jail time? Waste of time, take 'em down, take back the cash, point and laugh.

Yeah it's pretty despicable. There should definately be some kind of punishment for this. But as Over crowded as our jails are I think justice would be better served by some sort of community service. Maybe something involving cleaning up crap.
