Are you old enough to remember when this would've caused hundreds of thousands or even millions of angry people to march on the capitol?

[Sarah Barracuda]

Funny how the left is all in a tizzy over this yet they are the same ones after someone goes on a shooting spree wants to use it to take away everyone’s guns..I would love to tell these Dems to their face to STFU

[Jacquerie]

Being the rep of hundreds of thousands of unionized government employees has to be the easiest job in the world.

All you have to do is ignore the interests of your country and serve the insatiable money and perk appetites of a protected class.

Roger that. I do not like Dems much. I can't believe I used to be one.

[kempster]

Somebody better exploit the ineptitude at the VA hospitals. If Mr. Hoyer has a problem maybe he is part of the problem. Undermine this situation at your own risk.

[Mariner]

are you effin kidding me?!?!?!

They're letting vets die in the streets and this guy is worried about civil service protections?

This ladies and gentlemen is the government way.

[Paladin2]

Ho’ your is a vote for tyranny.

[Paladin2]

Nixon was no TEA partyer.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Dems politicize EVERYTHING yet they have the gall to accuse Republicans..I would say Im shocked but I’m really not..Dems are the slimiest of the slime

[ExTexasRedhead]

VA = ObamaCare = Holocaust II, the redo

[Political Junkie Too]

This is how Democrats always shame Republicans into not taking advantage of scandals that envelope Democrats. They claim that Republicans are "politicizing" the victims if they do it.

And the Republicans always give in, instead of using the leverage that is handed to them on a silver platter.

You know that if the roles were reversed, Democrats would go for the jugular over something like this.

I don't like politicians who "politicize" SCANDALS! Politicians like Hillary Rodham down at the Watergate fiasco. She was a huge "politicizer". She got fired over it because she's nuts. Doh!

Time to retire Steny old boy and to start looking for one of those greeter jobs. Maybe even a shopping cart rustler job.

[bray]

You mean like the Iraq war and the WMD Steny? You Marxist politicize anything you believe will promote your communist agenda.

This is the willful killing of veterans.

Pray America wakes up

Ping!

Steny Hoyer Supports Continuing the System that Is Letting Veterans Die

If they were part of using secret lists, keeping secret lists, hiding secret lists, or even turning a blind eye to secret lists, then they are guilty of malfeasance of office and should be removed.

Moreover, they KNOW they’ve done wrong.

The Senate Democrats yesterday voted to keep letting veterans die.

And had this happened under Bush then so would the Democrats.

[beethovenfan]

What the hell is a “steny”?

[Excellence]

I just spoke on the phone with my son who is on a Marine base waiting for orders. While they observe no news blackout, in fact Fox News is on all the time, the only news that is being talked about on base is this VA situation. The Obama administration is violating the “leave no man behind” rule.

[andyk]

Wow, Steny, your vow to hold those accountable is so powerful.

[Jet Jaguar]

V A ping.
