It's not surprising that an attempt is being made to muddy the waters.
In my opinion, it's dirty pool to imply that Villagers are "anti Veteran",
just because most are against giving Stoners access to Village golf-cart paths.

Buy a home in The Villages.

The rant about access to the VA clinic is a red herring.

I agree with both of you. The Senator is seizing a political opportunity in the light of the current bad VA publicity, and the group coming together claiming they are having access denied to the VA is being disingenuous. They basically want their shortcut back.

I believe they will have a very tough uphill battle against the developer.
