What's John Kerry doing?
I can tell you never served, Skippy. Anyone who made it past boot camp can tell you there's nothing new in this story. Conditions were terrible when I enlisted during the Carter administration and they were still awful when I retired during the Clinton administration.

Walter Reed Hospital is a political whipping post--nothing more.
If you've ever served in the military, you know that there are a lot of buildings on bases all over the world that are getting run down.
Beware any time you read a story driven almost entirely on emotion. Liberals do this because they know they can't rely on facts.

In war time there is only so much money available. So,,,,, where would you like the funds spent that Walter Reed gets. Would you like the money spent on rehab for dismembered war casualties, or on building maintenance?????
Seems to me like there are a lot of "hat racks" floating around these days, because they sure aren't using their heads for anything else.
Returning from Vietnam, our ward was cleaned every third Thursday whether it needed it or not. So quit your b!tchen.

Why should the Swift Boat Vets do anything about Walter Reed?They can't do anything,they are not in any position to make changes or be held responsible.That would be like me asking you why arent you doing anything.The vets have been mistreated and poorly diagnoised for years.Its disgusting that our govt.,both past and present treat our vets like they do.If anyone needs more help its them.I do what I can locally to help vets and donate to their causes,we should all help our vets,they are the reason we have our freedoms.

No pay, no say for those crabs. Get a PAC to pay for them and they will be out of their holes and johnny-on-the-spot. While it is difficult to find a truthful person, even with a lamp, this bunch of fellows probably are not likely to have even one dependable member to back the poor veterans. The VA has been useless to my dad, a veteran of Korea and alumni of the first cavalry division, so I would not expect much for the new set of decent fellows who sacrifice life and limb for the current unsupportive and dishonest government.

Probably to busy to notice all John Kerry's votes through the 90's to help Clinton gut the military that laid the ground work for where we are now.

They are still very busy researching John Kerry's lies and false statements about his so-called service of three months in Vietnam

They are off sailing on expensive yachts thanks to payoffs for their enterprising propaganda and lies against Kerry. If they cared for veterans, they would never have attacked him.
