Why I can't Sleep Returning Troops fight for VA Benefits
Advertisements [?]
My Job now is full time. I have about 450 cases on my desk of troops who are being **** by the VA.
The news is starting to pick up on these stories. Heres my problems these heroes suffer from PTSD and other disabilities. So here what the dam VA claims misplace records,delays in treatments, outright denials, and even have given some of these kids electroshock therapy.

My God are we living in the 19 century or the 21st century. I need to rant tonight. I posted about how budget cuts killed a vet and how kids with PTSD are being treated like shit. But these Replugs wave their flags put arms around them just for votes. I want to just go off on them. Families of these kids are angry as hell but just don't want to talk to the news. I cannot blame them there replugs payback hurts them like hell.

You all know about Hastert and Foley. Heres something you my not know in his in-box is our budget for the VA. That why after work I go work for John Laesch ruining against Hastert. Just had to rant here guys its getting harder and harder to just stay focused
