Coming up later on Wolf show CNN Sec, Nicholson will be on
I wonder what kind of bullshit he will say. Wolf will have him on in a follow up to Walter Reed and emails about the treatment of Veterans at the VA.

1. Does Nicholson have any military background, Monkeyman?
Edited on Mon Mar-05-07 04:15 PM by Penndems
Or was he chosen to head Veterans Affairs simply by virtue of being a Bush crony and former RNC Chairman?

Sources say case workers for wounded laid off

By Karen Jowers - Staff writer
Posted : Saturday Jan 20, 2007 8:33:08 EST

Defense Department officials have laid off most of their case workers who help severely injured service members, sources said.

The case workers for the Military Severely Injured Center serve as advocates for wounded service members who have questions or issues related to benefits, financial resources and their successful return to duty or reintegration into civilian life — all forms of support other than medical care.

The center officially opened in February 2005, with its primary offices in Arlington, Va., but also hired advocates at hospitals around the country.

Four sources said the decision was made to cut back the personnel because officials with the Army’s Wounded Warrior program felt the Defense Department program was a duplication of efforts.
