Here’s a Raw Story<\/a> article that refers to comments made by Representative Warren Davidson (R-OH) who replaced weepy John Boehner in Congress;<\/p>\n

\"Davidson<\/a><\/center><\/p>\n

The headline readers on the Left have all they need for information for this story, but even in the article, that’s not what Davidson, a veteran himself, said;<\/p>\n

\u201cJust like workers comp out here\u2019s got moochers, I wish that there were no vets that were the same sort of problem on our society,\u201d Davidson said. \u201cBut part of the problem is there are some vets that are moochers and they\u2019re clogging up the system, and we do as taxpayers want to make sure the VA filters out these folks that are pretenders. Just like we wish there were no people out there with stolen valor, but that\u2019s a problem in the vet community, too.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We’ve seen a number of phonies who try to use the system – mostly folks who have never deployed, were never injured in training who make up stories about their service. Some have never even served in the military;<\/p>\n

His spokesman cited four cases of VA benefits fraud uncovered this year, all of which were prosecuted.<\/p>\n

Only one of those four cases involved VA health care services, when a California man falsely claimed to be a decorated Marine Corps veteran to get health care benefits and other assistance.<\/p>\n

The Inspector General\u2019s Office investigated 14 cases between Oct. 1, 2015, and March 31, 2016, which resulted in five arrests.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I think there have been more than four prosecuted since March. There are also a number of pretenders who haven’t been busted by the VA – like Joe Cryer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Obviously Davidson was talking about the fakes and phonies, not all veterans. But then, Raw Story isn’t known for presenting facts to it’s readers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
