It's A Disgrace

“The wounded GI's disability check takes six months . . . nine months . . . even a year to arrive. He is wounded so badly he can't take care of himself, so his wife quits her job to take care of him. Suddenly he is facing a financial catastrophe and has nowhere to turn.” Why the hell is this so? Did it take six months to a year for these soldiers to go to the “war zone” and “leave parts of their bodies” there? Why the hell does it take the bureaucrats (who operate out of their safe, warm, plush offices) SIX MONTHS TO A YEAR to send these heroes money to pay their bills when they get back home and can’t work and pay them themselves? It isn’t as if they were the able-bodied drug pushers I see on the streets every day who are collecting their checks on a regular basis. It’s a definite SHAME Obama’s bureaucracy can’t speed things up for these heroes—or won’t. We all know the “Obama forces” wanted us to LOSE this war. What better way to do so than by creating “chilling effect” on new recruits by showing them their government cares not about them. (Coalition to Salute America’s Heroes)
