Veteran Be Aware

I thoguht the bureaucracy and gross negligence of the VA would improve with the law passed by congress assigning speedy removal of of personnel charged with gross negligence violations.

This is what I get for positive thinking. The VA has announced it will not enforce this law and the people fired for negligence can return to their jobs and probably qualify for back pay.

It appears we veterans have become a second class citizen. We must be a nuisance and inconvenience to big government. Liars, one and all.

Better yet, a General Courts-Martial for all of'em involved. Loss of rank & pay, plus a little vacation time at Leavenworth.

Really a sad state of affairs

What's new? We vets have always been treated as second class. But! We all know the difference as we still will continue to fight for what is right. The fight goes on and we will never give up. Keep fighting and be heard! Keep being heard for the benefit of the other Vets that can't and need us to help them also. This the year we need to change the politics of the land and we have that chance in voting. The government has gotten too soft and it's time for a major change. Just my 2 cents. ( delete this posting if it's too offensive )

Yes it is. Congress passed a good law of which nobody will enforce.

hang the #@$!%^

Not a vet. But, I am proud of you. This administration really has it out for the American people. But, to dis the ones who protect our freedoms is really lower than whale poop. DP

We have the power to vote them all out of office, so let's just always remember this, and vote all them leeches out...nonono

We used to have the power to vote them all out. But they have promised so many benefits to illegals and letting them in this country in record setting numbers (#buying votes) to WAY outnumber our votes. Sad. I feel helpless when it comes to this subject.

YOU can make a difference in November. You know both sides of the issues and all you have to do is the right thing to make a difference. Sometimes the right thing
is the hardest thing to do.

Sadness...but not in any way surprising.

My experience showed the problem to be with the facility ( Memphis VA ) not the elected offcials. After the Secretary of the VA office instructed them to serve me it took another two months to receive services. Another veteran told me at church Sunday that they have records of his vehicle getting blown up in Iraq and the extent of his injuries, he still has trouble getting services. Just saying.
