Good for walls. Although taking advice from walls is probably a clear indicator of insanity.

Modern text-splicing technology yields:

Veteran's Voice
Red
Enchantment - Aura
Enchant creature
Enchanted creature has "Tap: Another target creature gets +2/+1 until end of turn."

Though this archaic version does have the advantage of ignoring summoning sickness...
Also this way it's always a red ability, as opposed to being whatever color the creature is.

Ugh, I just learned that this had the cleaner, text-splicing template until the Scars of Mirrodin update.
If we can declare that "0: Pay THIS to do THAT" should always be interpreted as "Pay THIS: Do THAT", why can't we declare that the intent of these old cards was to splice the ability onto the enchanted permanent?

It's only good if the creature it enchants also has a Pacifism on it.

The card would be better and more thematic if the card also had "When Veteran's Voice is put into a graveyard from the battlefield, you may return Veteran's Voice to play enchanting a target creature you control that does not have summoning sickness."

That way, the card could be given to any veteran (as in a creature that had been in play). Alternatively, there could be text allowing you to cast the card from your graveyard with flash when a creature you control attacks or blocks.

@Galectrode: If you're running stupid combos like that instead of killing your opponent long before you have 7 land in red, you're doing something wrong.
