Whoever argues that VA has been broken for a long time is correct. It has. We cannot say that it has

...[I]f the administration knew of potentially life-threatening tenis online wait times at VA facilities and efforts by VA employees to conceal the real numbers, something wasn’t done years ago — long before CNN revealed the specific tenis online Phoenix accusations.... Please take a moment to read the brief article from which the above excerpt came and to watch the short video about the Veterans Administration scandal.
Obama can't have it both ways, either he knew since 2008 (video proof) or he just learned about it in the news? Please. They did not care, they threw more money at the problem and hoped it would go away. That is their answer to everything. Ironic isn't it. Put people on a waiting list, veterans, to keep from spending money on their medical treatment, then ... throw tons of money at the problem when it becomes a political tenis online problem. Doesn't make sense. Debbie Right Truth http://www.righttruth.typepad.com Reply Delete
BO's MO: Declare tenis online an on-going investigation then protract it without further comment (it's under investigation) and hope that it goes away. It seems to have worked, so far. Those of you who don't understand this are part of the problem(s)! Reply Delete
We all know Barry´s priorities are golf, vacations, and begging campaign money, but now that 450 Veterans are Dead, he wants to start an investigation, yeah right, just like he did right after the Benghazi attack. I can remember him saying " Those who are responsible for this WILL BE BROUGHT tenis online TO SWIFT JUSTICE" Still waiting! Reply Delete
Now that he has been made aware of the problems with the VA, the supreme leader is going to get to the bottom of this. He is demanding answers, now on to play some golf. I am surprised he doesn't blame this on Bush since Bush is the one who told him of the VA problem six years ago. I hope he doesn't draw another line in the sand because that means six more weeks of winter. Reply Delete
I understood B.O. to say that he has been working on improving the VA since his Senate days. Now he's going to fix it ??????? How can any thinking person still believe the BS that this fraud spews? When will this, his latest scandal, become "old news"? Reply Delete
Whoever argues that VA has been broken for a long time is correct. It has. We cannot say that it has only been Democrats who’ve ignored the VA. That said, the political solution is to throw a lot of money at an utterly broken system. It is unreserved foolishness. And then we have Dr. Krauthammer who opines that if you don’t like what you see happening within the VA ... just wait until Obama Care takes hold. Can you say UTTER DISASTER? Of course, we cannot place this solely at the feet of Democrats. After all, the American people elected such POS as Obama, Pelosi, Hoyer, and all the crooked politicians of the Democratic persuasion who quickly retired before the last elections in order to avoid indictment. Shinseki’s incompetence as Secretary of the Veterans tenis online Administration parallels his incompetence tenis online as Army Chief of Staff and why Don Rumsfeld fired him. So, if you are a progressive minded moron, what do you do with someone who is an incompetent Army Chief of Staff? Why, you appoint him to serve as VA Secretary —of course. Reply Delete
The VA system is the most expensive health provider there is not because of the medical expenses but because of the number of bureaucrats it takes to administer it. Old inefficient buildings with outdated equipment run by people who can't get fired. They need to convert some VA's to long term care and the remainder of medical care is paid by CHAMPUS. Better care, less money. Reply Delete
"the political solution is to throw a lot of money at an utterly broken system. It is unreserved foolishness" Ditto and since we are entirely broke, where is this "money" going to come from? BTW, money, per se, usually isn't the cause of government program failures. I didn't hear [accountability] mentioned in B.O.'s conference this morning. Reply Delete
By "accountability" I am making reference to such as: http://freebeacon.com/issues/va-spends-close-to-500-million-on-conference-room-office-makeovers-under-obama/ I wonder why this didn't come up? Reply Delete
Just like the GOP rejected Hillary's request for more security at Embassies.... tenis online Why Is the VA Suffering From a Lack of Resources in the First Place? "...nsufficient funding of veterans’ healthcare has been caused primarily by political decisions made by “support-our-troops” members of the US Senate and House of Representatives. Members of Congress who have in recent years voted against increasing the funding of veterans’ healthcare—increases necessary to meet the need created by the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan—deserve much of the blame for starving the VA into this scand
