Appointments to deal with veterans crisis "unacceptable" to veteran

This morning I received this email from my friend, Irish, a veteran's advocate, who has been testifying in Washington several times over the years. She types in all capital letters because of her own condition that has caused her to battle for herself and others.

The woman in this post that was turned away from the VA, I can verify. Irish called me when it happened. I suggested taking her to a different VA hospital because she was ready to get help and time was crucial to address the needs of the veteran. To have just sent her on her way when she was begging for help was outrageous. Too much of this is outrageous and if the VA keeps trying to hold off this tsunami with a beach shovel, we'll be burying too many veterans that should be living!

THESE APPOINTMENTS ARE TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.. THESE ARE NOT KNOWLEDGEABLE VETERANS AS STATED IN THIS EMAIL.. TERRY SCOTT SAT ON HIS ARSE AND ALLOWED TESTIMONY OF HOW TO CHEAT AND DENY VETERANS THEIR JUST DUE

... WHETHER IT WAS UNFIT FOR SERVICE DUE TO PRIOR PERSONALITY DEFECT.. TO THE FULL BIRD COLONEL IN CHARGE OF PHYCH AT WALTER REED, AND THIS WAS LONG BEFORE THE CONDITIONS OF WALTER REED WAS DISCLOSED BY THE MEDIA.. AND THAT JACKASS IS STILL THERE

.. THAT SAID " WE TRICK THEM INTO ASKING DO YOU NEED A DRINK OR MEDS TO GET
TO SLEEP AND THEN WE PUT THEM OUT UNFIT FOR SERVICE"..... OR THE FAT BASTARD
FROM GAO ... WHO NEVER WORE A UNIFORM IN THE US MILITARY THAT MADE THE
STATEMENT NOT TO GRANT ANY SERVICE CONNECTED CLAIMS................ "
BECAUSE THERE IS NO RETURN ON OUR INVESTMENT"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PAY
THEM " THE IRAQ WAR VETS WITH A ONE TIME PAYMENT" AND BE DONE WITH IT

......PEAKE SAID NO FULL SERVICE FOR THE STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE VA HOSPITAL IN MANCHESTER

... THE SAME VA HOSPITAL THAT HAS A STAFF WHO TURNS AWAY VETS FOR TREATMENT. ALLOWS HUMAN FECES TO STAY ON THE FLOOR OF THE 5TH FLOOR SPECIALITY CLINIC FOR OVER AN HOUR

.. THAT TURNED AWAY A DECORATED GULF WAR VET BECAUSE HE WAS THERE 15 MINUTES PRIOR
TO HIS SCHEDULED APPOINTMENT

.....THE FACT THAT HE HAD TO BORROW A CAR TO GET THERE AND THAT THERE WAS A MAJOR ACCIDENT ON THE ROAD HE HAD TO TAKE TO GET THERE.

..... TURNED AWAY................ BY SOME
B........... THAT HAD NO IDEA WHAT SERVICE IS.................

OR THE COMMAND SARGENT MAJOR.. THAT SPOKE TO A CAPTAIN AT THAT HOSPITAL..
AND FOUND OUT THAT THE LESSIONS ON HER WAS AS A RESULT OF EXPOSURE... NO ONE
TOLD HIM THAT

THE WOMAN VET WHO AFTER 11 YEARS OF TREATMENT AT THE VA HOSPITAL
MANCHESTER.. WENT TO THE HOSPITAL TO DETOX FROM ALL THE PAIN MEDS... WAS
TOLD THEY WOULD NOT TREAT HER.. AND GAVE HER A BAG OF PILLS AND SAID " GO
HOME AND TAKE THESE WHEN YOU START TO GO THROUGH
WITHDRAWAL////////////////////////////////////"

HOW DO I KNOW THIS BECAUSE I WAS AT THE VA DISABILITY COMMISSION HEARINGS IN
SEP AND NOV 2006.. ALONG WITH NAM AND GULF WAR VETS... AND THIS IS IN THE
PUBLIC RECORD... AND HAVE FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS.. SEEN THIS FIRST
HAND..............

VETERANS NOT ONLY DO NOT ACCEPT THESE MEMBERS BUT WE WILL HOLD THEM
ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIER VIOLATION OF THIS APPOINTED OFFICE.. DELERICTION OF
DUTY AND OTHER CRIMES AS COVERED BY LAWS,,, THIS INCLUDES PEAKE...

TRANSCRIPTS OF THE VA DISABILITY COMMISSION ARE ON THAT SITE........
INCLUDING MINE AND OTHERS ...............


SUBMIT NAMES OF THOSE THAT SHOULD BE ON THIS COMMISSION... NO MORE DOG AND
PONY SHOWS............. OUR GENERATION VIETNAM HAVE NO MORE TIME AND WE WILL
