Obama "madder than hell" that he's done nothing about the VA since being told of problems in 2008

By now you have to roll your eyes when you hear it. A scandal pops up and you know exactly what is going to happen:

Obama claims he learned about a scandal on TV or in the newspapers just this morning. Obama will declare how "angry" he is. Obama promises to 'get to the bottom" of it. Obama promises to hold accountable those who are responsible.

And then what happens?

Obama blocks all requests for documents. Absolutely nothing happens. Obama declares it a meaningless "bonehead" act and it's not serious.

IRS:

"So we'll wait and see what exactly all the details and the facts are," Obama said at a news conference. "But I've got no patience with it. I will not tolerate it. And we'll make sure that we find out exactly what happened on this."

So what has Obama done?

Nothing, save for block all requests for documents.

Who's been held accountable? No one.

Benghazi:

Obama’s reaction to the terrorist bombing in Boston? No, those were Obama’s words at a political fundraiser in Las Vegas Sept. 12, 2012, the day after the murder of the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three other Americans in Benghazi, and less than 24 hours after he claims to have given the order to “secure our people” in Benghazi.

The next day, as he was massaging his radical base at the University of Colorado, and by which time he still had not checked with his Secretary of State or his Secretary of Defense to see what progress they’d made in rescuing our people in Benghazi, he said, “I want people around the world to hear me: To all those who would do us harm, no act of terror will go unpunished.”

Who's been held accountable? No one.

He will not rest.... But will play golf and take vacations.

Yeah, just like he and the Dem's will be "madder than hell" because Obamcare raises not lowers costs, and creates shortages of care, and creates lower quality care.

But we'll still call it the Affordable Care Act because all attention is on INTENTION and no attention is on RESULTS.

On the other hand, Obama commented the very next day regarding an incident when a Cambridge Mass. police officer arrested one of his friends, Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr.
Obama commented that the police officer had acted stupidly, without knowing any facts of the case.

He talked about it in a speech. Problem solved.

The WaPo shows a nine page memo dated 2010 in which the VA clearly acknowledges what was going on. Of course there’s an attempt to blame Bush, but Obama has known about this since the transition. He refuses to speak out now.

He may be "Madder than Hell" about the Veterans hospitals and the 'wait lists",
but Moochelle has told us he has been working 'day and night' on developing jobs !
How's that been working out ?
.. and we expect more from him on the Veterans Hospitals problems ?
Campaigning verbally, ..but comming up short on action !

He’s angry because it exposes what a feckless drug-addled degenerate he actually is.

The Obama transition team was told about these problems in late 2008.

Let’s put the proper interpretation of what has been said.

“Obama claims he learned about a scandal on TV or in the newspapers just this morning.”
Someone within the VA leaked this information to the media.

“Obama will declare how “angry” he is.”
Of course he’s angry. He’s a collectivist, Muslim, homosexual, wannabe dictator Impostor-In-Chief that hates it when his subjects get out of line and make him look like a bad guy and a fool. No one crosses the line like that and gets away with it.

“Obama promises to ‘get to the bottom” of it.”
He’s going to find the leaker with the help of the 30 US intel agencies at his fingertips.

“Obama promises to hold accountable those who are responsible.’”
He is going to punish the leaker(s) and make them regret ever crossing him.

“So we’ll wait and see what exactly all the details and the facts are,” Obama said at a news conference. “But I’ve got no patience with it. I will not tolerate it. And we’ll make sure that we find out exactly what happened on this.”
He’s going to use his intel agencies to find every last piece of dirt on the leaker(s) and make their lives hell. He won’t tolerate insubordination like this. He’s putting everyone on notice that knows this leaker that Obama will make an example of what happens to those who betray him.

He fired somebody, in order to fill the vacancy with another stonewalling crony. Thanks Starman417.

How can this ‘swipe claim he found out about the problem watching recent television coverage when he spoke on the senate floor about W’s inept handling of the VA back in 2007?

So Bush started it and Obama made it worse. More “conservative” legacy of Bush.
