Berta Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I got this too from Charles- he is rocking the boat- and his site is wonderful-as well as his book----- hopefully he will be our guest speaker again at SVR veterans radio weekly show- GRADUATE ! Nov 2nd 2007 American Military University ! When thousands of Americans faced annihilation in the 1800s Chief Osceola's response to his people, the Seminoles, was simply "They(the US Army)have guns, but so do we." Sameo to us -They (VA) have 38 CFR ,38 USC, and M21-1- but so do we. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copy of IOM presentation in early June to the Disability Commission
Hi to all,
Been working on my appeal some and down some so those that have been asking
that is why nothing new.
Below is a link I posted on the IOM presentation in early June to the
Disability Commission.
_http://www.2ndbattalion94thartillery.com/Chas/IOM.pdf_'>http://www.2ndbattalion94thartillery.com/Chas/IOM.pdf_
(http://www.2ndbattalion94thartillery.com/Chas/IOM.pdf)
This pretty much confirms my initial report of the IOM slamming the VA and
its internal processes hard.
Now what does that mean to us in the fight?
Probably not much since our own congress cannot get the VA to do what is
right nor do they seemed to give a damn.
I will leave it to you to review the recommendations and see how credible
they are and if you think it will be anything but business as usual at the VA and
its White House after White House puppet secretaries; lies, denials, and then
more lies.
It will be interesting to see what IOM presents at the July Disability
Commission on presumptive disorders and how it applies to public law and the
categories contained in the law by definition. Since they are our appointed judge
and jury we shall see if it even comes close to what the law says and then what
the “infamous Secretaries of Veterans Affairs” is supposed to do with the
recommendation.
I hope to get a few questions up with the concurrence of Paul and Mike on how
this applies to the Commission before the date if I have time. I do not
think the Commission has any idea of what questions to ask nor the history - no
matter what is presented by IOM.
Here is another prime example of government/VA/IOM propaganda. MSNBC in the
link below states no cancers found in AO study. This was put out nationally
by the Associated Press and everyone picked up on it. All of it on cancers
nothing but government lie and congress lets it go on like nothing happened.

As you recall a posting of other media reports, were the main DOD scientists
for 14 years of the study said the study was totally flawed because of cohort
assumptions and when recalculating the statistics the actual finding was a
two-fold increase in cancers was found. Along with another, two term committee
scientists indicating that is all cancer sites not just the few the VA and IOM
has acknowledged.
For your review, again I posted the real concerns and outcomes at:

I think you will find that the lead scientists for the DOD Ranch Hand Study
admit the study is junk.
I was going through the transcripts today for my appeal and found that
statement in transcripts once again about the increase in cardiovascular issues of
which they knew in 1991 there was a significant increase. That along with VA’s
Dr. Kang’s new study pretty much concludes the same thing and still our
congress does nothing to stop the VA lies not only in this medical disorder but
others that were found by Dr. Kang as well as associated to herbicides and/or
service in Vietnam such as Hepatitis.
AP, MSNBC, and the national media can put out this White House/VA Bull out
like it was fact. I will say it again - this sounds like Germany circa 1939,
nothing but government propaganda.
Best to all,
Kelley
