What has lots of arms and legs and flies?

the dumpster at the VA.

A Vietnam Vet turned nurse told me that joke. Only, I don't think he meant it as a joke. I hate the VA, too, fargon. Sucking little bastards!

Actually instead of doing surgury, we are going to commitee, and meeting. Oh and lest I forget pass the buck, and play politics. We are going to wait and put things off. But I have fooled them since I have already lost everything I have ever owned because of VA foot dragging and bullshit. I aint got nuthin to lose. Im going to sit here and watch my sanity, and physical health deteriorate, then they can put me in thier Hospice and preform thier hideious experiments on me. If any of you Lawyers out there want a job call me I might just have one.

You'll have company. The Cheney administration is cutting VA funding in it's proposed budget. Now you'll have more injured vets (Iraq, Afghanistan) needing assistance, with less to go around. It's the repubican way!

"Dear Veteran: Thanks for you service. Please find enclosed one (1) full sized refrigerator box and a tin cup w/pencils."

Your pal,
Dick (LawyerSlayer) Cheney

Last time I spoke to Sen. Feingold one of the things we talked about was VA funding. What ever Shotgun Cheney wants to do he will have to cut funding to his buddies. Because The Vets are a priority to most legislators.

You dreamer, you! If they're such a priority how come you're getting the lousey treatment you are - you and every other vet? The local VA clinic here has a caseload of 500 vets to every VA worker.

Oh, yeah, Vets are a priority, alright! :mad:

Think my Lady DR. told me last year she had over 300.

We actully have it better than it was back in the 70's and 80's. Things are getting better. VA pencil pushers are having to justify thier existance, and drug addiction cases are getting more scrutiny than before. I'm still not pleased but thier is progress and maby the Accountants will get out of the health care business.

A few years ago I decided not to go to the VA anymore after loosing my temper and getting brigged. The VA here (CArl Vinson) does not try to treat you... they just medicate you. Fuck them. IMO they shouldn't hire anyone to work there that isn't a veteran themselves. I repeat... Fuck 'em!

No shit captn. I have no less than 8 different Med's. Of all the Dr's and Nurces in VA hospitals I have been daeling with only 4 have been Vets. Only one Doctor the rest were Nurces. I would be real happy if they were all Navy MC I have spoken that language since birth.
