Veteran in Fight of His Life After VA Declared Him Dead

A North Carolina Army veteran was shocked to open a piece of mail notifying him of his very own death.

Pressley told Neil Cavuto that his family received documents from the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Defense stating that he was dead. The government also sent two checks to help pay for his burial costs.

He added that duplicate letters were also sent to his ex-wife, even though he told the VA a number of times that they were divorced and he has since remarried.

Since he was declared dead, his benefits reportedly have been terminated.

There's your run-of-the-mill government incompetence, and then there's the Obama administration.

I saw Neil interview him today.
Pressley now says that it looks like the problem has been sorted out, and by the 1st of June it should all be rectified.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Should never have happened, but who knows what the hell is going on these days?

owebuma is in charge but it's probably Bush's fault.

It is going to take many years for a Repub President to weed out the incompetent liberal bozos. I know, just a pipe dream.
