President Bush had this to say about veterans care at today's presidential press conference:

"I've called in--I asked Bob Dole and Donna Shalala to lead an important commission, a commission to make sure our veterans get the benefits they deserve.

I was concerned about bureaucratic delay and, you know, I was concerned about a system that had been in place for years, but just didn't recognize
this different nature, a different kind of war that we're fighting.

I don't like it when I meet wives who are sitting beside their husband's bed in Walter Reed and not being supported by its government, not being helped
to provide care.

I'm concerned about PTSD. And I want people to focus on PTSD.

And so we sent up a bill. And I hope they move on it quickly.

There's place where we could find common ground."
