Obama in 2008: "No more waiting in line at the VA"
Excerpts from Obama Terre Haute campaign speech | April 12, 2008

The U.S. senator from Illinois said as commander-in-chief he would “keep you safe. I will not hesitate to strike against those who would do us harm.”

He said the U.S. military should also be treated properly “when they come home. No more homeless veterans, begging for disability payments, no more waiting in line at the VA [Veterans Administration].

How often must it be said that this sad sack is an America-hating, lying fraud?

No waiting--he just let them expire.

If our economy were doing this bad, if our veterans and soldiers were dying at the rate he has permitted, if our respect around the world were this low--if all of this happened under George W Bush, the news networks would be talking about it 24/7.

If you like your waiting line at the VA, you get to keep your waiting line at the VA. Period.
