And they don't have centers and again the VA -- We went on so you really in trouble. All we should state in the ecosystem based on details read stories. About about being -- just not about."

" There when you go live when you go into a hospital they could just reassigned the secretary to to do research and policy duties."

" This state they give he's eight hated but that certainly sold hysteria. If we're spending two billion dollars a week and wreck which are. All we have to do it expects this target is that people who test. All of them. People possible all of what achievement people this is not hard to -- not. Revenue have a problem is that you'll -- this system took our money it cost for example --"

" It's how I won it you don't want it made it pathetic just exit seven but I'll just from may. Did -- close and we got."

" That's a state that's the state capital it's -- in the center of the state."

" I -- out. In my yard of people aim it at the -- negative is not enough that we all the bytes eight we underfunded that VA and -- medical care. No question about it but it creeping about -- a liberal press broke this story. From Washington Post. And now everybody bought back out I'm afraid -- Paint the walls. Varsity the first time -- are any given that -- Packet pocket -- the outpatient care widget and minute story we get guys will tell you that would give them -- With and everybody kept one -- to -- Walter Reed to get packages for operation in eight. We got a guy or -- testified yet spoke like he got it on crutches into which it -- sent around to get signatures. Or operation we'll get. And so -- kind of stupidity. I wanna get -- let's talk about it airs we think I get tremendous care on the battlefield. And on and all the way back it was at least that -- patients. Complete."

" Let's make it -- things and calls for colonel David Hunt the title of his new book is is."

Why they don't just closed the VA hospital and how old is apt get out of rehab no paper and a bad and -- medical care you -- the doctor. I."

" You're right and get a great -- I don't care elect billions now like we we doubt that if I get whenever we get injury. In fact any doubt it I think it care are well. -- about -- in the best of Egypt that women care. Audit what you would go back and -- You get 400. Global marriage are fun aren't ordinary they're going to happen what -- but that's -- doesn't bottom out. -- backed by -- by at all every kid forget what I guess that he's got to go that they. He could -- reverie got it you know that's going to be toward agreement for the next six months to cheers absolutely. Absolutely in the money which going to pots and my people don't want it -- possible I think everyone except attacks. August soldier will be installed attacks. Egypt CX -- you're right."

" Thank you hardy -- you're do you think medical that the that out there and and and you're right. The money that it's like the government can operate those VA hospitals I."

" I haven't run out. Article -- right. That it's just money. But this thing is busted. It's completed and my hope is that they think that outpatient part. -- paint the walls of -- and colleagues studied Bob Dole Angelina went around the country. You know getting all these sort of stories and they'll be going to want to -- record hospitals radar. But outpatient care council we take two years. It -- psychiatrist and they've got serious range which is just wrong."

" Thank you Michael Kennedy -- next with Howie Carr and colonel David Hunt go ahead com."

" Week I'm like I'm right I felt -- go under but as a story -- radio on your -- amount by. This remember everything the lowest cost bitter right our best. Now at Yankee Japanese ball and I think recent exit them it. She closed out all the hospitals. Have these guys in Roland but managed care or give them help parents. -- and -- I'm -- that that I came back in my extol quiet once soldiers between now a year and a half."

" And yet. They don't get out I am I'll I'll I'll -- up thank you service -- guy is. I'll be okay. It's unbelievable when it doubly interested they'll make you look on up at every two years they have got cabinet at a page in eight months. Let's get paid the -- you -- have to educate. Not apocalyptic stories every -- story about soldiers who gave everything they had and this nation is about."

" What you don't George Bush -- put George Bush down completely but he goes to Walter Reed I don't Bosnia every every couple of a mile or so."

" You know you're treated at an education like -- but technically it if Arnold -- people we got you optimistic look at. What you're the president I got -- united people just been testing stat. To it every week he sees what they want to say. And it the president got involved in it I think I -- woman's -- Or maybe ever go to -- the army you know. Ever they were told about this state -- I think. That's how art it's -- a -- right. A couple of once during that strike gates -- I've got out that -- Secretary of the thing that's we expect up short -- but text and a bought the eight adequate job. On August on this event and other things so far he's got to pick up."

" Okay let's take a break 1877469432. To the kernel will be whether someone asked about the general pace when we come back in his interview with the Chicago Tribune and our car."

" 18774694322. Us toll free number of the public our show. This is colonel David Hunt the title was new book is on the -- there will be published on April the second will be in Orleans on the 31 signing books and -- around. For the next couple months after that here -- there in New England signing books do you believe your moral -- radio goes. Before -- back we're talking about the situation of building eighteen. With the returning vets and also I wanted to ask you. Colonel. Herman of the joint chief of staff Peter pace general Peter pace said Monday he considers homosexuality to be immoral in the military should not condone that by allowing gate personnel to serve openly. Now he's -- homosexuality to adultery which he says it was all -- immoral. And what does this now he's saying well he he shouldn't have you mentioned his personal. Beliefs. But he he stands by what he said and -- understand is. Yup -- if you have ministers in Amherst Massachusetts who refused to merry straight people. Men and women because -- they believe in gay marriage they're they're hailed as being very brave he general pace says what he believes and he's denounced as a as as someone who is. --"

" Why doesn't -- have the right to say what he beliefs. --"

" I'll want to get volatility -- stock because it could com. Pete prep repeat we -- Twice yeah. He's -- Dad got it right -- Americans that these are the chip -- charge -- step. And probably edit that it now altitude -- don't ask don't tell all of which is compromised. To do it Clinton administration and what can of liquid -- but did detect tried out. To figure out what to do regular office and want to have openly gay men and women. Serve and end. All policy on equipment budget took two years of compromise which is which is not acceptable anybody. Don't have to tell. And maybe they. Gay finished -- history which -- administration that. He's right the organization it -- organizations. Claim they're 65000. All the sexual and it went -- that it women in the military. It and it got I think we're at war. We need Arab linguists we just to reject -- to a we've got to accept -- record came. -- got to be it Iraq. And get -- steps get -- Pete Pete can pay any wan meaning we don't know -- happy should. It's it's 81 person what did you -- chief your president. Editing it and it's counted. I think what -- acceptance. Having gays in the military. Chunk out of its former jet engines Baptist changes. I'm of the opinion I don't care I thought about them. I have set it -- And as war and OJ and at least. Dealing in the Middle East. Like go to bat house killed a lot. -- that pop -- we get when I think every packet on -- minute. Who could -- it killed a lot wouldn't want him so. That that's."

" Where you are you saying bin Laden's -- It does those we have about 55 wives."

" Yet but that's not what I. -- you worry actions --"

" Your own music -- believe you when you say this."

" I would not. That people think everything Alley or anybody out to a radio not -- but I'd -- point it. We have to -- out like this -- get a lot. In. Can't -- don't tell thing. Every -- and soldiers and sailors and Marines specialized professional basketball. I think I -- We had a -- we've -- stretched. Taste it distract."

" What about. Your port that which is court martial last week forget what branch was it and it was get feet taking taking guys to the bar and putting the date rape drug them and drag him back rate but I mean that's kind of a distraction to that."

" Which -- point that. It is that all gave that had not -- heterosexual men and give -- that I've yet they're bad they're bad people ought to present it. -- Senior military guy in our country it's just distracting and saint and I do you square that -- story. With hate sweating -- immoral act case it's it's -- may get much more and more -- soldiers. That whenever without having such org about I think it's it's outrageous."

" Carl you're next with how we guard colonel David Hunt author of the new book on the -- go ahead."

" I can't colonel I thought I was going or -- or. Spent over thirty years ago he and I can remember go on it VA hospital -- nine hours with -- topics are. -- sixteen prominent dying. And nobody yeah."

" I dare say the same thing it's it's this country's tradition to neglect war veterans. Real."

" Exactly and a couple of things I gotta get this off my chest out we were talking before about governor. Patrick yeah. -- and general on the air force it was running straight sentiment may be Curtiss-Wright as like what happened nervous breakdown. If you take off for -- month or 22 in its second World War II I mean it --"

" What -- probably Curtis look it was he was having -- nervous -- is why he."

" Let but I -- well. Did you get it up Thanksgiving. If we come back on the -- what what kept it in our current -- actor and -- are never actually got hit a -- yeah I bet that shot it worked right -- the -- This is his and we had a lot more time. Coming back on occasion it was just the ticket numbers. Yet the air you can find YouTube or any kiosk out here in the weight. To pick whatever one you want. Hit the way. And see what happens it's outrageous. An -- I gotta agree I don't mind if Paul ever did all DP evidence -- Wherever he wants to be quite a bit like -- don't stop work. He's been there at night deeply of Canterbury shall does opt."

" Well getting yet he he was badly served by his incompetent people in his press office which you get he hired -- ultimately his fault but I you know I don't think he ever said he was I I don't think he ever meant to say was going to quit working and again I called -- apologist for the guy. What can -- site they would call Carl."

" It's almost I figure out how much -- not a pretty. This I got an accurate -- Ali -- opening in the."

" Talk your next with Howie -- and colonel David Hunt go ahead --"

" It happened -- but that would Minneapolis says now wallet and I broke my kneecap and I had surgery done at the navy hospital and I got some lucky. You know are brought bringing it get a great job my help -- almost no and down -- they don't get a whole lot you want it went right you know."

" And I'm -- I think okay I'm I want I didn't say -- I apologize. I'm saying that that you. They ought to present stories we certainly guys get -- The immediate care all the way back -- right back on his ears as is often the best the world. -- understated -- lot series outpatient care aides are are in trouble that would also -- I never got the cancer I'm glad Eric was great service but."

" A 100% it had bigger -- it right it did a great job and I was lucky I didn't have a lot of outpatient kid needed afterwards. Yeah -- got the first time and Michael Garland lights so I've putted up the good story."

" Back it up eight which Japanese. People get upset. Lack of -- out whiplash in those things don't work it's not battlefield care is the best the world. Flight back to Germany play it back."

" It. -- I mean there's there's there's a much higher percentage of people with grievous injuries or they've now than in any war in history right -- stick and don't call penalties. Colonel -- thanks reveal whether it's okay. Titled his book is on the amount arc."
