Injured Iraq vets sue Bush administration.
Iraq vets sue Bush administration.A coalition of injured Iraq war veterans filed a class action law suit charging outgoing Veterans Affairs Secretary Jim Nicholson “of breaking the law by denying them disability pay and mental health treatment.” The lawsuit asks federal court to “order the VA to make immediate improvements that would speed disability payments, ensure fairness in awards and provide more complete access to mental health care.”

5. Disgruntled?
Shell-shocked, mentally disabled, brain injured, forever changed and BRUTALLY VIOLENT. Blackwater will get the "cream of the crop" and you'll meet the "dregs" in your local police department.
