Cleland chides Bush on veterans issues and Iraq strategy
SARASOTA -- Former Georgia Sen. Max Cleland lashed out at the Bush Administration for being "two-faced" on veterans issues and for not having a good strategy to win the war in Iraq.

Making a campaign stop for Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry, the former Democratic senator called on veterans to vote for Kerry because of Bush's failure to budget more for the Veterans Administration and for his attempts to shut down three VA hospitals.

Cleland said Bush can't send soldiers to war and then cut the services they will need when they come home.

"He has been two-faced in his dealings with veterans," Cleland told a mostly Democratic crowd of more than 200 people during a rally at the New College of Florida campus on the Manatee-Sarasota border.
