#1 We've got to keep the faith with these guys. They gave damn near everything for their country; their country cannot allow them and their sacrifice to be forgotten or unrewarded. We need to keep a very close eye on VA funding to make certain that the traitors on the Demo side of the aisle don't decide to "save" some money there to fund one of their pet projects, like, say, a gay/lesbian/transgender outreach program.

They've been let down for years. It's just that this 'revelation' is more for scoring political points than on any genuine concern.
