Wonderful. Now, what’s going to be done about the VA?

What unqualified hack will be nominated to take his place?
Listening to 0 on the radio now accepting Shinseki’s resignation.
Ya , Obama is BLAH BLAH BLAHING on mute now
Nothing will be done. This is so Obama can say he fixed it.
LIVE on FoX now..
Which will solve nothing.
The media may lose interest in the story now. They will say that Shinseki is gone, so that fixes the problem. Now let’s move on to more war on women crap, or pushing global warming, or some other liberal talking points.
5 years of ineffective command, this was 4.5 years too late.
Good for Eric.
He can move past this low paying cabinet post and go on to make some serious dough in lobbying and consulting.
How about Captain Midnight resigning, that would be progress.
Whoa, didn’t see that one coming.....
“I’ll now take a few questions.” (Pulls list out of pocket and reads the name of questioner) Prepared question and answer!
He had five years to fix this. Good riddance.
Had to give all the Dems up for re-election time to show their fake outrage before dropping the axe.

This should have been the first thing that happened, as soon as the story broke. Unfortunately, knowing Washington, this will be the end of the story, not the beginning.
