The service officers at the VFW and American Legion won’t appreciate obuma trying to muscle in on their territory. The service officers I know are well versed in their jobs and don’t need some idiot bureaucrat jerking their chains. In all likelyhood, these veteran corps “volunteers” will be used to frustrate and barricade veterans from receiving what they’re owed. Hell, wouldn’t surprise me to see code pink manning these positions.

I’m in agreement with you. I see what you mean. This is how they divide and conquer with little trinkets for every “special interest group” to get them onboard the socialist program. That’s all they think of veterans, by the way, as another “special interest group” just like homosexuals, welfare recipients, illegals, womyn and drug addicts. I was a veteran’s career counselor from 1988 to 2000, so it’s natural for me to want them (us) to get everything they deserve, but you’re right, with this guy, the price is too high!!

Like most things sounds like a good idea but it isn’t. There are already a lot of good groups doing things things and now the govt program will put them out of business.
