    Warning for those who use the VA for Health Care

    I had an appointment with one of my VA doctors today. In the course of the appointment, I was subjected to a 5 minute Spanish Inquisition about guns. To give credit to my doctor it was obvious that...

    I would have agreed with you about the VA 8 years ago, but the VA here is swamped and will not hire additional personnel to handle the increased patient load. The closest VA Hospital was built in...

    I am glad your experiences are more positive but there is a huge difference between your experiences and mine. I had over 31 years total service when I retired in Dec 2004. I see little difference...

    Actually I think he has convinced himself he wants a .40-70 Bn. I suspect he is using the bad chamber as an excuse to rechamber it to what he wants. He would probably be better off if he just...
