Give ‘em hell, Louise! From The Gavel, the new blog for the Speaker of the House, Louise Slaughter’s statement on the alleged crack-down on dissenters in the Walter Reed Hospital beds:
The Gavel ? Blog Archive ? Rep. Slaughter on the Silencing of Walter Reed
?The only acceptable course of action for our military and civilian leaders to take is to fully and openly address any and all concerns regarding veterans? facilities nation-wide,? Congresswoman Slaughter continued. ?Any attempt to silence the very soldiers who brought their own mistreatment to light, or to hide ongoing abuses from the public eye - if such attempts are occurring - would be morally reprehensible. It would be an abdication of one of the most fundamental responsibilities of our government: the protection of those who have fought to protect us.?
No one bristles quite like Louise. You gotta love it in a Representative. Resent it in a mom, perhaps, but ya gotta love it in a Rep!
