Iraq War Vets Battle WArs Signature wound Brain Injury cuts

[Monkeyman]

And now DOD is cutting funding to the Defence and Veterans Brain Injury Center. IS THERE NO SHAME? IS THERE NO SENCE OF RESPONSIBILITY? The most seriously wounded will be getting less for treatment and research. ONE out of Three of these young men and women suffer from a sort of Brain Injury. After Rumsfeld Statement at the Legion he should look deep into a mirror and quit. I post Veterans issues to show you this Administration lies to the Country when it claims to support the troops and veterans. We Must Win in 2006 and bring our troops home to the safe arms of their Families.
