The folks at Fox[y] and Friends were interviewing him this morning.

It sure didn't take long to get someone's attention to fix it.  The IDIOT who made the decision to ask for the money back should be IDENTIFIED and "permanently" terminated from working for the federal government in any capacity.

It wasn't a "the idiot", it was a "bevy of idiots".

I have been following the VA situation and someone who shall go nameless, tipped me off to a special on CNN... yeah I know... the trash network, but Dr Gupta ran a story on three Veterans relative to their Claims for disability being 10% and getting about $1200 - $1500 a month.

One guy lost 25% of his brain, most of a hand (sewed a big toe on for a thumb), his other arm below the elbow and his face is burnt off along with his ears... 10% disabled!

Another woman, shotgun in a Black Hawk, caught a RPG and lost both her legs.  Same problems, but she is more agressive, ran for congress and barely lost, when the Governor came along and put her in charge of the State Veterans organization.  She has been banging the **** out of them and her husband just deployed.

He is a Major in a transportation company (convoys) and he could have applied for a hardship, but refused to do so and when Gupta asked why... he said we aren't built that way.

The wife is hoping he will come home safe, but she is planning for his being killed or severely wounded.

In any case, it is what it is and this government should have moved right past Walter Reed and into the VA.

If a guy signs a contract and  for some reason, he chooses not to honor his commitment, then he should pay it back, but if you are involutarily incapacitated, we shouldn't be punishing them contractually and if the VA says a guy is only subject to 10% disability and he has massive holes all over his body from shrapnel... and they tell him that the wounds were not service related.

So he is trying to figure out along with Gupta, where would this schrapnel come from?  He thought it came from the EOD that blew up and killed two guys on either side of him!

Ditto that!
