President Obama finally addressed the nation Wednesday about the growing scandal at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. After meeting with VA Secretary Eric Shinseki he pledged to hold folks accountable.
Thanks, Mr. President.
By now most American have heard about the VA’s infamous patient “secret wait lists” which reportedly contributed to the deaths of up to 40 veterans in the Phoenix area alone. Those patriots were American heroes who served our country proudly. Yet they were left to die waiting to see a doctor.

Despite the fact that Al Qaeda terrorists carried out the Sept. 11 terror attacks, killing 3,000 people in America, the admitted co-conspirators and their roughly 150 fellow jihadists at Gitmo have approximately 100 doctors, nurses and health care personnel assigned to them.

“Al Qaeda terrorists at Guantanamo treated better than our vets”
Obama’s America. That line should be used in the next elections.
Shame on liberal elite filth... shame on them.
obammy’s people, Al Qaeda terrorists at Guantanamo .
Holder’s people, criminal blacks,
Is this a great county or what???
Ditto that (see my tag).
OBAMA’S VIP TREATMENT OF ISLAMIC TERRORISTS PRISONERS AT THE AMERICAN GUANTANAMO BASE
Detained in the maximum security at the naval base in Guantamo cells some of the terrorists are more dangerous world in conditions that are overseen by the International Red Cross.
During the war against terrorism more than 100,000 Islamic enemy combatants were captured and of them, about 850, the most dangerous were interned at Gitmo as the Americans called the base.
The detainees are in 5 different prisons, being divided according to their behavior. Also this separated as they are Sunni, shiis, detainees or Arabs to avoid fights between them. The uniforms are different color according to their behavior. In field 1, the uniform is beige, moderate behaviour. In field 2 and 3 are the worst of the worst uniforms in orange color. In Camp 4 in white uniforms are the best behavior to which they are given more freedom. There the prisoners live in units of family style where 10 detainees shared housing and dining room as opposed to those in other fields where are kept separate. 5 this field facilities for interrogations and is there where old terrorists intending possess valuable intelligence can be used for frustrated new terrorist attacks.
Each prisoners is provided a Quran and a rug for prayer marking the cells in the direction of Mecca. Also is the arrow direction to Mecca in recreation places where terrorists can get together to pray 5 times a day.
Prisoners with good behavior receive certain privileges such as oils to pray, accounts such as our rosary to pray, chess and other games. You can also win extra bonuses to increase recreation time or participate in games of ball foot.
In Camp 4, where are the best behavior, detainees receive ice cream on Sundays
We, the American taxpayers, spent $12.68, providing meals in accordance with their religion, including cakes, cereals they prefer.
In comparison, the budget for the feeding of the soldiers who take care of them is only $8.12 daily.
The allegations of ill treatment are absolutely false. When you are dealing with a detainee two guards are present and there are cameras everywhere, cells, areas of recreation, dining, and interrogation rooms. All videos marked the date and time for further review...
On the other hand, terrorists, especially in the fields 2 and 3, do everything they can to hurt the guards, such as throwing pieces of metal with human excreta.
Contrary to the campaign of defamation of the press controlled by the left and by the traditional enemies of the United States, detained at Gitmo, terrorists have never had the opportunity to live and be treated better, clothes clean, food à la carte, recreation, religious services, without having to work.
Definitely!
I recall reading that the US flew in a specialist medical team and equipment to Guantanamo to provide surgery for one of the murdering terrorist inmates at Gitmo — while you know what’s happening to our brave, heroic vets...
Guantánamo detainee refuses heart surgery

“Guantánamo officials said their 150-person medical team is capable of performing the routine operation and note that nearly $400,000 was spent flying in a 24-member team of cardiac specialists and equipment to be on hand in case of complications.”
>> Al Qaeda terrorists at Guantanamo treated better than our vets
A fact that must get serious airtime.
REFERENCE Federal outreach to Muslim American communities is a pillar of Obama counter-terrorism strategy
Washington post | 5/25/2013 | AP / FR Posted by tobyhill
Within hours of the Boston Marathon blasts, government officials and Muslims in Boston called each other to offer assistance. These calls were the fruits of years of cultivating such relationships in an effort to ultimately prevent the very type of attack Boston experienced April 15....
Representatives from the US Departments of Justice and Homeland Security called to offer support to Muslim communities......just in case THEY suffered backlash or threats.
“YES HE DID”!
