“We have huge numbers of our men and women that are returning from conflict, that are seeking counseling, psychological counseling, and can’t find that counseling within our system. And, of course, record numbers of suicides. This is a crisis!” Romney declared.
“Given the needs of our veterans, how in the world, as commander-in-chief, you could stand by as we shrink our military commitment financially is something that I don’t understand, and I will reverse it,” he added.
This is not shameful. This is true. Suicides are way up, Sequestration will make huge cuts and we have already learned that part of the Libyan problem was lack of funding to harden the embassy.
But for this Liberal website, where the first thing that pops up is an offer for Obama emails to say Romney said that one led to another is what is actually "Thoroughly disgusting."
Yes it's disgusting that Romney is trying to link a bipartisan agreement (that his VP choice was key in constructing!) solely to Obama and then blaming Obama for taking away care from suicidal troops. Romney knows NOTHING about military mental health. I just spent over a decade in the field. He really needs to learn what he's talking about before spouting off.
