Jen Burch, a 35-year-old retired staff sergeant in the Air Force, looks strong and healthy from the outside. Inside, however, she says she’s suffering from ailments that she believes are related to her service during the Afghanistan war more than a decade ago.
The veterans camped out on the steps outside of the Senate all weekend, braving the heat, humidity and occasional thunderstorms and sleeping on the hard concrete stairs. Burch said she wanted to camp there too, but began feeling intense pain.
The protest by 60 veterans groups — along with comedian Jon Stewart — has put Senate Republicans on the defensive as they’ve struggled for days to explain why they are holding up legislation that would provide much-needed health care for millions of veterans exposed to things like burn pit smoke, Agent Orange and radiation.

Comment:
The Democrats are liars.
They don't care about the Veterans.
They have never cared about the Veterans.
If they really cared about the Veterans, they would not have loaded the Veterans Healthcare bill with $400$ billion in greedy kickback spending.
They are lying to the public about what they are really doing.
This is the sort of dishonesty that corrupt Democrat do all of the time.
They are doing this to try and unseat GOP Senate candidates.
It is about power and money, not compassion.
BTW, Jon Stewart is a POS.
