PostTraumatic-Obama-StressDisorder

hopefully sooner, not later. ;-}

[clintonh8r]

Now moving toward blaming Bush.....

[onyx]

Marxist is lying about his “concern.”

[reg45]

The bureaucracy has its scapegoat.

[Gaffer]

I would want detailed accounts of this guy’s interaction with Obama and what his marching order were from the White House. Firing him just absolves Obama and his “all this for a damned flag” wife, in my opinion.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Barry is not one of us.

[daku]

Any other administration would get hammered with “what took so long?”

[GRRRRR]

Obozamma just blamed BUSH (predecessor) for the VA problems.
Cited lack of $$$...but we all KNOW that VA spending has increased over the years...

Said he was aware of VA issues when he was a Senator in 2008...promised to fix them when he became Idiot in Chief...

In the finest American tradition, Clark is now making big money as a “ethanol lobbyist”.

“Where we have seen a problem,,, we have gone after it and fixed it.”

B.S.

Where and when were those problems and where and when were those fixed?

[Gaffer]

Well, SHE is someone from whom I’d like a personal recount of whatever she has to say on the matter.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Wasn't this the guy who months ago announced that he would be retiring at the end of the year?

... I think the Republicans are missing a great "Teaching Opportunity" here.

.... President Obama held up the VA medical system as a shining example of how well the Affordable Care Act can function. And in fact he also pointed out that parts of the VA Health system were included in his grand Affordable Care Act which of course in his delusional mind is functioning perfectly and saving most Americans buckets of money.

... The GOP and Tea Party should be plastering this all over the airwaves and social media instead of letting the Administration frame the issue as merely a funding and organizational issue. With the resignation of Eric Shinseki the media will just move on and say "Case Closed."

...The GOP needs to keep this issue alive and prevent the media from changing the narrative and diverting attention away from the real issue of what is happening at the VA and the significance of this to ALL Americans.

[nascarnation]

Oh so it was the evil Republican House (since 2011) that’s at fault!

[onyx]

You’re right and he’s made it clear, that he has no, or little use for our military or our veterans.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

“Now watch this drive...”

[Qwackertoo]

While all the liberals are blaming Bush as does Obama and blaming the Republicans for not spending more money. How much more have we spent since 2008 at the VA?

[NonValueAdded]

and that’s precisely what WON’T happen!

[beelzepug]

“What unqualified hack will be nominated to take his place?”

She will be black, gay, and will have never had anything to do with the military in her life. Oh, and she will have donated large sums to Zero’s campaigns in the past. In other words, highly qualified.
