Well, SO MUCH for "change we can believe
in" and "yes we can" !

Yes Michelle, we veterans thank all the
employees for the outright murder, slaughter,
and human torture of our medical patient
population. Thank you for that --- how
terribly insensitive the oversight was
on OUR part !!

Michelle Obama thanks Veterans Affairs employees

By DARLENE SUPERVILLE
Associated Press Writer


WASHINGTON (AP) -- As her husband debates whether to send more U.S. troops into Afghanistan, first lady Michelle Obama told Department of Veterans Affairs employees Tuesday they are doing vital work.

"So often federal employees feel underappreciated," she said. "You often get a lot of the blame but sometimes none of the thanks. My simple job is to say 'thank you' because the job that you do is a big one."

Millions of veterans and their families rely on the department for health care, or help in pursuing an education or buying a home.

"Your work is vital. It really is," said Mrs. Obama, who has become an advocate for military families. She talked about some of the things men and women in uniform give up to serve their country, and said their families and communities sacrifice, too.

Mrs. Obama said President Barack Obama is mindful of the fact that his efforts are only as strong as the people on his team.

"So it's just important for you to know that the president and I are proud of you, just as proud as we are of the men and women who serve this country, the people that you serve," she said. "And we just urge you to keep it up."

Obama is reviewing the U.S. strategy in Afghanistan. A decision on a new strategy, including the question of whether to send more U.S. troops into battle, is expected in the coming weeks.
