Is it true that the Bush administration or the Congress cut VA funding the same week we invaded Iraq?

    Nope, in fact VA funding increased faster under Bush, than any previous President.

    Va funding under Bush went from 47 billion to 94.3 billion in just 8 years.

    In 2003, VA funding went from 51 billion to 59 billion dollars.

    Va Funding increased 23% in just the first two years of the Bush administration.

    Thats as much as it had, in all 8 years of the clinton administration.,

    Probably best to just read the News Sources for yourself from that time period.
