Obama: True or False statement?

[customloaded]

Got this in an E-Mail. No sources noted. Anyone seen this email before or hear these statements made by President Obama?
I do recall President Obama and or his administration bringing up the idea of having wounded Veterans paying for their own health care but not these specific statements.

UNBELIEVABLE PRESIDENT???

HERE IS HIS RESPONSE WHEN HE BACKED OFF FROM HIS DECISION TO LET
THE MILITARY PAY FOR THEIR WAR INJURIES.

WHAT AN EMPTY HEADED PERSON HE MUST BE....
Bad press, including major mockery of the plan by comedian Jon
Stewart, led to President Obama abandoning his proposal to require
veterans carry private health insurance to cover the estimated $540
million annual cost to the federal government of treatment for injuries
to military personnel received during their tours on active duty. The
President admitted that he was puzzled by the magnitude of the opposition
to his proposal.
"Look, it's an all volunteer force," Obama complained. "Nobody made
these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now
they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn't compute.."

"I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their
country, "Obama continued. "I wasn't asking for blood, just money. With
the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I'd have
thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the

nation's deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my
fellow Americans."

Please pass this on to every one including every vet and their
families whom you know.
How in the world did a person with this mind set become our leader?
I didn't vote for him!!!

REMEMBER THIS STATEMENT... "Nobody made these guys go to war. They
had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing
the costs of their choice?

If this A*S thinks he will ever get another vote from an Active
Duty, Reserve, National Guard service member or veteran of a military
service he ought to think it over. If you or a family member is or has
served their country please pass this to them. Please pass this to
everyone. I'm guessing that other than the 20-25 percent hardcore
liberals in the US will agree that this is just another example why this
is the worst president in American history. Remind everyone over and over
how this man thinks, while he bows to the Saudi Arabian king.

Obama may have thought it, but his teleprompter would never let him say it.
