The President's Weekly Address: Help for Vets with PTSD

From the White House blog:

President Obama announces that the Department of Veterans Affairs, led by Secretary Shinseki, will begin making it easier for veterans with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder to receive the benefits and treatment they need.

This is a wonderful step.. I am glad the President and Sec. Shinseki have decided to do this and make it easier for our veterans to get the help they need.

I have helped several veterans try to get their benefits due to PTSD and it is so difficult and finding proof sometimes just isn't possible. Especially for the older vets...

Once again, this president has shown how much he supports our veterans and our military... Wonder who is going to attack him on this now?

Pres. Obama Gets The Idea He Was Wrong On Veterans Insurance

Pres. Obama is not a dummy.. He got the picture. After the meeting at the White House he realized the idea, not sure who gave him the idea in the first place, of trying to bill private insurance for service connected injuries instead of the VA taking care of it was really stupid, and so he has now dropped it.

This has been released just a bit ago, and hopefully will help everyone feel better about this. I know everyone was pretty upset about it. It was a really stupid idea. Like I said not sure who could have ever thought it was a good one, or why anyone would have thought it was.
