from CNN.com: Army Secretary Francis J. Harvey has resigned in the wake of the Walter Reed hospital scandal, two days after firing the 2-star general who was heading up Reed.
This is a scandal that veteran groups knew about years ago. A scandal that civilians knew about years ago -- it was being discussed on LJ, openly. Substandard facilities and treatment, for those who were wounded in war, serving this country.
Only now, two weeks after the story broke in the news, is anyone resigning. And Bush has said not word one on the topic.
"We support the troops."
Yeah. Right.
