Later today Veterans Committee will tell some ugly facts |
|
There are articles across the Country telling you Vet Centers cannot handle the case load of veterans and returning troops. Well its all true here is some number just from one City clinic Spokecane Washington last year 1,500 cases of PTSD this year 2478 cases.This is across the Country. Now here's the Kicker because Foley case broke we have no FY 2007 VA Budget. Hastert and boys ran out of Washington without passing it. Later today I will post the Democratic Veterans Committees findings. Get ready to hear some real bad news for Veterans, Troops and Military Families

I've gotten a few responses from him. He's quite nice and he loves the DU. Talked about DU this morning with a caller. He's passionate about veterans issues. :thumbsup:
