Remember Saddam had WMD even though facts said otherwise and reality was then perverted by anti-Americans. Anyone blowing the whistle in this George Jr era gets massacred - including the better generals who were 'ordered' to be ignored. Even Walter Reed is now that bad because 85% of all problems are directly traceable to top management. Those who tried to change things were 'transfered'.
I will be the most dispictable poster you have ever meet if it means choosing between being nice verses being honest. I have long been accurate about this administration’s contempt for the American soldier. Even Walter Reed is now that bad.

The reports that I have read in the mainstream press talk about the VA, specifically on NPR. If you have sources please site them and I will read them. I am brutally honest. The care at Walter Reed is very good. The people that were in building 18 were in a MED HOLD status. I am sure that you know what that is and what it means to be stuck there. I will not make excuses for the failures, they are across the board in many facets of the system, they have been there for years. Funny how suddenly everyone is all interested in fixing what people have said has been broken since its inception.
Outpatient care has been and is deplorable.
Inpatient care is very good.
