Talk show host and Navy veteran Montel Williams appeared on Fox News Wednesday to let loose on President Barack Obama’s handling of the Department of Veterans Affairs controversy.
In a fiery appearance, Williams stood up for the rights of veterans, noting that many of them could never have imagined they would leave a battlefield in Iraq or Afghanistan and find a new one back home.
“I’m angry because, you know, we made a promise. When I stood with my hand up proudly, I said, ‘I do solemnly swear and affirm to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic and I will bear true faith –.’ I went through my oath,” Williams told host Neil Cavuto.
Williams ripped the president’s recent appearance at the graduation of cadets at the United States Military Academy at West Point. Instead of using the appearance to promote a new $5 billion anti-terrorism initiative, Williams thinks the president should have remembered the vets that had come before the cadets.
“The president just promised $5 billion for terrorists around the world?!…At West Point? Where he could have used today to say, ‘I’m sorry! For the pain that I’ve caused you, the families! And I’m going to fix it today!’” Williams said.
The Naval Academy graduate echoed recent comments concerning the lack of interest society has for our veterans. Williams, who estimates he makes over 30 troop visits a year, has seen the amount of politicians and celebrities visiting troops deplete over the years. While he feel it is an unpopular opinion, Williams ripped members of Congress and the Senate for having never served in the military.
According to Williams, less than 20 percent of Congress have served in the military.
“They are easy and quick to send someone else’s child off to die. They should be just as quick to protect them when they come home.”VIDEO
