		Instead, the new Committee would consist of all living Hall of Famers, all living recipients of the Ford C. Frick Award (baseball broadcasters), all living winners of the J.G. Taylor Spink Award (newspaper baseball writers), and the other members of the replaced Veterans Committee (Ken Coleman and John McHale).
		The historical record of prior Veterans Committee results is completely irrelevant; there are no patterns of previous behaviors on which to base analyses of the eventual outcomes.

		Many factors are to blame failure of the VA to adequately project demand among the returning combat-zone veterans, insufficient investment in people and technology, and different standards for rating claims among the Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISNs).
		During this time of war, the nation owes to its service men and women and their survivors prompt, accurate, and comprehensive support for their disability claims and to redress the rising backlog of claims of those who served in earlier conflicts.
		Yet, unlike the government's Indian Health Service, the VA is not authorized to provide Medicare-funded services in the VA system to enrolled, non-disabled, Medicare-eligible veterans who would prefer to obtain their Medicare benefits in a VA facility.
