Teeth Problems

I have diabetes, The VA considers it a service connected disability caused by exposure to Agent Orange, which is cool. But the diabetes has caused some problems with gum infections which lead to teeth falling out. That's not so good. In fact it's terrible because the OKC VA wouldn't provide dental care unless I was 50% disabled and it was service connected. Diabetes is only considered a 20% disability.

So I started checking into Mexican dentists for dentures and the possibility of payday loans to pay for it.

Then I discovered that the Wichita VA doesn't ration health care as badly as the OKC VA and I transferred all my health care to Wichita. Viola, new teeth, no charge, service connected.

So I'm getting dentures.

Faith Hill

I needed to call a VA 1-800 information number yesterday. You get a recording of Faith Hill, introducing herself and saying, "blah blay, God bless You and God Bless America".

God?

Exactly whose God is she talking about? Hers? Mine? I don't have a God, so it must be hers. What the hell is the VA doing promoting her God? It's one thing to be listening to the radio and hear Sean Hannity spout off claiming that the United States is a country created by God. It's another hearing the government itself demand a blessing from God.

It makes me want to go get apayday loan so I can retain a lawyer to sue them.
