VIDEO: THE VA'S BIG LIE - PTSD IS CURABLE --

VA Secretary Jim Nicholson on C-SPAN:

"This is a curable mental phenomenon."

 

 

VA Secretary Jim Nicholson has resigned his post and will leave no later than October 1, 2007.

But, he just can't resist.  He has to kick veterans in the butt one more time before he leaves.

Nicholson on PTSD:  "This is a curable mental phenomenon."

The Army also believes PTSD can be cured.  Col. Elspeth Ritchie (psychiatrist), Chief Psychiatric Consultant to the Army's Surgeon General, has stated this a number of times.  Story here...

There is no evidence that PTSD can be cured. 

But, this is what veterans have to look forward to...misinformation and lies.
