Let me take this opportunity to remind you that this investigation was instigated by the current administration and uncovers corruption under the previous administration. I'd say it proves that we finally have a President who is more concerned with taking care of our military personnel rather than merely sending them to war and abandoning them when they returned, as Bush/Cheney did.

Are you opposed to providing healthcare to them?

gunnyreef - you are mostly pathetic. It's not your fault. I understand. Are you a veteran?? The government, YOUR government, had total control of your healthcare while you were on active duty. YOUR government already has 'a hold of your healthcare'. If you or any loved one are getting Social Security disability benefits, if you are benefitting from Medicare or Medicaid, yeah ... YOUR government 's got a 'hold of your healthcare'. You seem to have a problem with that. Likewise you sound to have a problem with YOUR current President rooting out all the problems in the VA planted by YOUR ex president and company. In the future please reserve your brilliant, cutting commentary for more appropriate subjects.
