ABC is giving a Primetime preview of a wounded vets story.
And it does NOT make this administration look good.

In fact, one minute of it and I want to strangle Bush with my bare hands and sharp pointy nails.

A wounded vet living out of his car???????????????????????????????

Here's a jobs program for yah, folks: build housing for our troops, once we've damaged them so much they can't work.

4. This morning they showed a vet with no arms getting no financial help
Another vet who got severely injured in an explosion and couldn't go back to active duty received a bill asking him to repay his $2,000 re-enlistment bonus when he wasn't even back on his feet yet and had no income! This story emphasized that almost 8,000 soldiers have been so severely injured that they cannot return to duty.
