About ten years ago I was talking to an old veteran at the VA Hospital here in Houston. He told me he had cancer and would die within about six months because the VA didn’t treat him in time. This has been happening for decades.

I believe that a large part of the problem is the culture of the mid levels of management inside the VA, thanks to union and civil service rules, it is effectively impossible to fire anyone. I was listening to C-span on the radio and caught one of the Veterans organizations telling the story of someone proven incompetent, still being paid for three years after being removed from a position of responsibility. Untill several bureaucrats are shitcanned (fired for cause with loss of pension, or some clear equivalent to court marshal) in under six months things will not change.

Right on Sarge! This clown is a Chicago politician living a lie that will never be exposed because the corrupt socialist media’s role would be revealed if the truth were ever to be known.

Engulfing the golfer? POSOTUS should be trumpeting it as an example of Obamacare TOTALITARIANCARE.

Lists. Treatment withheld. Death panels, anyone? Uncle $OCIALI$M wants you…dead. You've outlived your usefulness. You're a net negative. $ubmit to the proper authorities.

Only if the MSM decides to talk about it, which they won’t.

The left doesn’t like the military anyway. This isn’t going to make any difference to them. And our fine representatives in corrupt DC probably all know about it but would rather spend the money buying votes from illegals via Medicaid.
