Marine Vet Pays for Billboards Saying VA Is Lying
Big Government ^ | 9/8/15 | William Bigelow

Posted on 09/08/2015 3:38:04 PM PDT by markomalley

Two huge billboards in Central Florida paid for by a Marine veteran are advertising the message that the Veterans Affairs Administration is lying about their improved service for veterans.

Roger Gagnon, of Orange City, paid $775 for an Orlando billboard and $1,400 for another near Daytona Beach to send his message for one month. The billboard, boasting a bright yellow background, read, “VA is lying, veterans are dying.”

Gagnon asserted, “It’s not about me, I’m all set. This is about the people who are in the service and the ones who are fixing to go in the service.” He said of the VA, “They got that last nerve of mine that I just got to the point where I said, ‘I’ll eat Ramen noodles for a month, but I’m going to let them know that I’m upset.'”

Let’s all recite the VA Executives Motto!

All together now.

“Delete, Delay, Deny And Let Them Die To Make Our Bonuses Go High, High, High!”

“OBAMA’s VA” would be better. Tie the misery veterans are suffering to the person who is causing the pain. Hussein.

Thanks, Old Sarge, for the ping. Do you do the Florida ping now, or does Joe Brower still do it, too?

Heard a slick radio ad today in which a speaker claims to be a doc for the VA and talks about his dedication to the vets.

It was just as bad before him.

I think Joe still does it, but I include as many as I can remember when I see something.

I think it has gotten worse. My FIL has VA care under Dubya, and did not experience the kind of problems another family member in the same state has had under Hussein.
