UNBELIEVABLE...A veteran waiting 9 Years for benefits?

And then you see current statistics...395,139 Veterans are waiting on claims over 125+ days..

What the hell is going on with the VA?

WE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN FIRST...The hell with anyone else.

I think our government needs a REALITY CHECK!
