"Today’s Washington Times reports on one way that the Obama Administration is looking to cut spending -- by cutting health benefits to veterans injured in combat. Obama wants to force private insurance companies, rather than the Department of Veterans Affairs, to pay for the costs of treating our wounded heroes, saving $540 million.
The commander of the American Legion called the plan “unreasonable.” A top official of the Disabled American Veterans said the Obama proposal was a “betrayal.” Glen M. Gardner, commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars, called the idea “unconscionable” and added, “it breaks a sacred trust that veterans have with their government.”
If the administration is looking to save money, I’d suggest they start by cutting the planned $900 million foreign aid package to “Hamastan” in Gaza that Hillary and Obama are pushing. Or how about cutting the billions of pork barrel projects out of the “omnibus” spending bill he just signed. Cancel funding for ACORN and Planned Parenthood. I’m all for saving money, but not on the backs of our veterans."

And won't the Obama plan for veterans work like this: Private health care raises prices astronomically to pay for veterans, creating a manufactured health care "crisis" which prompts the public to demand Socialist, er, Government run Health Care.
Obama - he's got a plan to pick your pocket and control every facet of your life.
