Contempt for wounded soldiers and veterans (neo-con style)

Walter Reed hospital is set to close by 2011, yet, with the large amount of soldiers returning home from severe injuries from Iraq (who are flown directly to Walter Reed), you would imagine this administration has made drastic improvements at the nation's top army medical facility.

Sadly, they have not. Check out the story in the Washington Post by Dana Priest and Anne Hull. Our nation's wounded heroes are facing poor conditions and horrible administrative organization (sometimes resulting in the hospital not even knowing who exactly is being treated) at Walter Reed. If you still believe this administration "supports the troops," this story may just open your eyes.

To top it off, the Bush administration is calling for veterans benefit cuts in order to balance the budget by 2012. Funny how they want to balance the budget on the backs of veterans! Maybe they should have not given a blank check of $10 billion to the private contractors. These corporations got away with murder at the expense of our tax dollars and, now, at the expense of our veterans.

No oversight, no accountability, just smears and lies. This administration makes me want to throw up. Last night on the show, I almost ruptured a vocal cord screaming about these degenerates.

Look for the podcast on iTunes soon!!!
