Pentagon's undersecretary for personnel and readiness, regarding his personal
comments about Veterans published in the Wall Street Journal.
How dare you sir blame the veterans of this nation for the failures of our
own government and politicians as they pander for votes with failed social
programs full of fraud and corruption in the millions maybe billions of dollars;
to include a failed education system in the billions or maybe even trillions of
dollars. How dare you sir blame the only segment of our society that "actually
does something" to earn any program or any entitlement, including defending this
country and other countries around the world.
If you have a problem with your budget then I suggest you talk to a politician
and not accuse the honorable veterans of this nation for your budget problems.
The DOD, the Pentagon, and the VA lie through their teeth daily as they stall,
deny, and cover-up veterans' and widows' claims for compensations. Veterans are
denied via the use of government-corrupted medical studies, a totally
adversarial VA, biased committees that are formed like the VACEH, an
unconstitutional veterans court, and a less then forthcoming NAS/IOM. How many
must die because the government lies and the "information voids created" to
solve your budget problems. As well as the President's mandated budget
constraints to purchase votes elsewhere. How many Mr. Chu? How many to solve
your perceived notion that veterans cause your budget concerns and the pentagon
woes. When in fact, the hard earn taxpayer money is spent elsewhere and the
government robs veterans of millions of dollars each year in many many ways.
You might want to tell your recruiting NCO's and the retention NCO's exactly
what the government really thinks about yesterday's obsolete government assets
(the American veteran) and how they will be treated on the other end, after they
do the government's war dance.
You might want to tell them as one former Secretary of State actually commented
in 1990: "Military men are dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns for foreign
policy." Yet, these dumb stupid military men are the ones that keep this nation
what it is, certainly not you sir, or our "so-called honorable politicians."
One of these days all veterans and widows of veterans; past, present, and future
are going to realize our government and politicians (both parties) concern are
for veteran's budget constraints and mandates so they can pander elsewhere.
Once united, the politicians and our presidents will no longer be able to count
on a 60/40-vote split as they pander to other segments of society and sell off
the white house with taxpayer money one social program at a time, or a foreign
government one brick at a time. Then totally ignore the veterans of this
nation, while you then blame us for your budget problems.
Over 140 million votes united and we can elect any president and any member of
the house or senate we want and that day is coming as more and more of the
government corruption regarding veterans gets out, in spite of our government's
best efforts to hide it all.
Veterans deserve more than government lies and cover-ups and we certainly
deserve someone better than you and your accusations in the pentagon.
I would be happy to debate you in front of the Veterans Affairs Committee on
national TV if there is any intestinal fortitude behind your statements. No, I
do not have a doctorate, but I can assure you I have just a tad bit more IQ than
a "dumb-stupid animal."
