Georgia Democrat took to the House floor to slam President Obama over the VA scandal. Rep. David Scott spoke Wednesday after the president made his first public comments about the growing scandal.

“I listened to the President today, and I was very disappointed with President Obama today. There was no urgency. Mr. President, we need urgency, we need you to roll up our sleeves and get into these hospitals!”

Scott said VA Secretary Shinseki should be fired, noting that at the VA hospital in Atlanta four veterans committed suicide in the hospital.

Watch the fiery remarks above.

Wow, a brave Democrat. Didn’t Representative Scott get the party memo from Pelosi about all of this being George Bush’s fault? Will Democrats of conscience, if there really are any, finally step forward and take their party to task on this issue and many others?

Is there such a thing called “Crocodile Outrage?”

You know since everyone up for serious challenges at re-election is clambering for a toehold on some victims group...

democrats are really good at it...

republicans are clueless as usual...

That leaves us with an administration that tells everyone that has no skin in the game a big fat “no”...

Remember...The VA’s budget is increasing from 84 Billion to 154 Billion for next fiscal year from what I hear...

Any wagers on how well that revenue will be spent???

These people can't wait for hearings, ‘look-intos’. etc. They need care NOW.

they should pass a bill, immediately, that allows any vet who needs medical care to go to their local hospitals - and the bill sent to the VA.

that's the ONLY way to help all those thousands whose names are b buried and/or now destroyed.

Hey, ‘’’’’’’’’’bummer- use your PEN. Sign a EO. TODAY. Let's call out reps tomorrow and demand they be allowed to go to their local doctors/hospitals...

That’s the problem - this ‘president’ doesn’t actually know how to do anything, he only knows how to SAY he intends to do something.

You nailed it. Crocodile tears from those who hate the military but know an election year pitfall when they see it.

“We oppose the war but support the troops” GRRRRR!!!!!!

Obama knows how to do what he WANTS to do. What he WANTS to do is tear down this country. He is doing quite well at his chosen activity.

I am not sure if I agree, although I understand completley what you are saying.

They may (luckily) be just as incompetant at instilling socialism as they are at anything else. If they were really bloodthirsty about it we would already be under martial law.

I think Odumabss just believes 100% that socialism is the utopian goal, and he is just too stupid to see it never works.

Clown Prince nobama and his communist minions have intentionally installed socialism all over the place. Look around. There are many who are dependent on the government for all sorts of handouts. It grows daily as people feel defeated and give-in to the communist “freebie” culture. Everything these anti-Free-America degenerates do is intentional.
