Paul Krugman writes: "The administration uses carefully cooked numbers to pretend that it has been generous to veterans, but the historical data contained in its own budget for fiscal 2008 tells the true story. The quagmire in Iraq has vastly increased the demands on the Veterans Administration, yet since 2001, federal outlays for veterans' medical care have actually lagged behind overall national health spending."
