Today's Veteran's for Common Sense email newsletter was headed by the following article.
"Veterans have no legal right to specific types of medical care, the Bush administration argues in a lawsuit accusing the government of illegally denying mental health treatment to some troops returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. The arguments, filed Wednesday in federal court in San Francisco, strike at the heart of a lawsuit filed on behalf of veterans that claims the health care system for returning troops provides little recourse when the government rejects their medical claims."
In addition, VCS also said the administration is attempting to limit Mental Health Care to returning Iraq and Afghanistan vets to five years. So serving your country really doesn't mean much anymore. When you look at the potential for injury or death, exposure to chemical and biological agents, and lack of liability on the part of the government, might as well stay home and work for Walmart... let them contract their wars out with Blackwater and Soldier of Fortune help wanted ads. I'd like to see the ribbon magnets for cars...'Support Our Mercenaries.'
