AP IMPACT: Number of disabled vets up with Iraq, Afghan wars

So an AP Writer states the obvious, with a few vague figures and political innusendo thrown in for impact. And the Poineer Press pays for this? I'd like to submit a story about the sun (that big yellow thing) coming up in the morning, (up is ^).  (Sunday May 11 | post #1)
