So they consider saving veteran’s lives and treating their medical conditions as “small stuff” do they? Is there anything these people can do or say that will get everyone off their duffs and marching on Washington, DC?

The aged 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus radical, psycho spoiled brats and their ideolgical issue, the Obama Administration tells it like it is.
"We don't do the small stuff, man. We concentrate on the the big American project: Bring it all down, man."

It’s one drama after the others with this ahole.
The VA stuff will never stick.
Swipe the hand around, gettem looking at the right hand and rob them with the left hand.
Lord I hate this current crop of aholes.

But, if we have no military, there will never be wars and no vets to return from them.
That way, we can take that $48 billion and use those employees to destroy soemething else
