Well, let's be honest. The conditions at Walter Reed are beyond substandard.

Let's be even more honest.

Walter Reed is not a VA facility.

So if you must damn the VA. Damn them for a facility they manage.

Walter Reed is a DOD hospital.

Is Walter Reed a VA Hospital?  The VA is the VA, in the VA.  Has been during Clinton, Bush 1, Regan, etc.  It seems to me that the scenario occuring at Walter reed is specific to Walter Reed, and in no way analogus to some all-of-a-sudden substantial decline in Veterens' care, under this President, the way folks like Lanya would wish us to believe.  Are you aware of the "beyond substandard" conditions occuring at Martin Luther, here in Southern CA.?
