The leader of the nation’s largest veterans organization says he is “deeply disappointed and concerned” after a meeting with President Obama today to discuss a proposal to force private insurance companies to pay for the treatment of military veterans who have suffered service-connected disabilities and injuries.

KEYWORDS: serviceconnected; veterans
The Commander, clearly angered as he emerged from the session said, “This reimbursement plan would be inconsistent with the mandate ‘… to care for him who shall have borne the battle…’ given that the United States government sent members of the armed forces into harm’s way, and not private insurance companies. I say again that The American Legion does not and will not support any plan that seeks to bill a veteran for treatment of a service connected disability at the very agency that was created to treat the unique need of America’s veterans!”

Unbelievable. And Michelle is spending her time with military families telling them of their undying love for all things military. Gag me.

Charging war veterans for treatment is outrageous. These men and women have given their blood to serve protect and defend this country from its enemies, they deserve much better from the Obambi administration but then what else could we expect from far left liberal loons who hate the military so much they want to destroy it. Liberals are traitors to this country.

He is a traitor and should be immediately removed from office (birth certificate or no birth certificate).

All I can say is that I saw a lot of vehicles with “Veterans For Obama” signs on them during the campaign. Most were driven by White people. I would say one better be careful what one prays for. Sometimes you get it.
