Today while some people were saying goodbye to Matt Maupin ,I was in the Lexington , Kentucky Veterans Hospital. I was there to see my uncle ,maybe for the last time. I was Shocked at the pittiful conditions Our Nation's Wounded Veterans have to endure. The rooms were dirty ,hot and crowded. There were no cheerful paintings to look at and only one television per room. No extra seating for visitor's food deplorable and the SMELL . The nurses were nice and I guess they did what was expected of them, no more. Here we let our President send our loved Ones into War but when they come back wounded and broken we don't object to sending them into these Hell Holes. I think our nation needs to start taking GOOD care of the proud men and women who have served their country. Don't take my word ,take a few moments of your own time and visit a local V A Hospital, Look around and see for yourselves. America I AM ASHAMED !
