Jon Stewart: If we really want to improve life for veterans we have to declare war on them
Wow… Jon Stewart just went in full attack mode Monday night in response to the insanity at the Veterans Administration. It’s reasonable to see why he’s as mad as hell, those of us who watched our friends and family go off to war are just as pissed off to see them not be able to get the care they need when they come home. THIS is the appropriate response:
JON STEWART: So it’s clear love and respect ain’t gettin’ the job done. So there’s only one way to put our full government resources behind anything. If we really want to improve the life for these veterans, I’m afraid we have to declare war on them. Congress, write a blank check to fund Operation Enduring Wait List: A War on Error. Because if you want Americans to feel shock and awe you’ll fund this f*ckin thing.
