Anyone paying attention should've realized the slippery slope we've been on since the first Confederate statue was removed. The VA was shamed into rescinding this dumbass idea..this time.

They will just do it without saying a word and hopes nobody notices.

“non-consensual act...is inconsistent with the VA’s no-tolerance policy towards sexual harassment and assault”

Yet the same people are just fine with insane MEN going into young teen girl locker rooms and parading around naked against the girls’ wishes. That is most definitely “non-consensual.”

This is the disgusting, filthy pig of a witch.

And she is the Assistant Under Secretary for Health for Operations, Veterans Health Administration. Shame. Shame. Shame.

But I take comfort in knowing veterans out there will give her the urinal Jane Fonda treatment. I know I am not alone in my disgust at her, and the people, all of them, who put her in that position.

Shame. Shame. Shame.

Undersecretary RimaAnn O.Nelson penned the complaint
VA undersecretary RimaAnn Nelson

By Benjamin Krause September 30, 2016: BREAKING – Rima Nelson, New Phoenix VA Director, Has Skeletons In Closet

Under the watchful eye of Rima Nelson, St. Louis VA closed twice due to serious medical safety issues. The facility also ranked dead last in patient satisfaction. Negligent medical practices also resulted in 1,800 veterans being potentially exposed to HIV.

I called the facility to verify her ascension to control at Phoenix. The email went out to workers at the facility yesterday. And below is what veterans and the workers at the facility get to look forward to after stress at the facility chewed up and spit out Deborah Amdur last month.

I can't seem to find any personal data about this woman.

Lawrence Verria and George Galdorisi, authors of The Kissing Sailor, a 2012 book about the identity of the subjects of the photograph that had become so famous, used interviews of claimants, expert photograph analysis, and identification of people in the background, as well as, consultations with forensic anthropologists and facial recognition specialists. They concluded that the woman was Greta Zimmer Friedman and that she was wearing her dental hygienist uniform in the photograph.

If she was, she never lodged a complaint about it.

This whole thing was allegedly brought forward by complaints from VA staff;

I’m going to suggest that all FReeper VA patients wear a t-shirt emblazoned with the image to their next appointments and beyond.

she's the epitome of the Peter Principle

"October 3, 2019

PHOENIX — The director of the Veterans Affairs medical center in Phoenix is leaving, according to a document obtained Thursday by 12 News.

RimaAnn Nelson was the director of the Carl T. Hayden VA Medical Center in Phoenix in the wake of a scandal where it was uncovered that veterans faced long wait times for appointments."

Nelson has accepted the position as the network director of the Veterans Integrated Service Network in Cincinnati, Ohio. She is expected to begin on Oct. 27.

You know the scariest part of this? These folks are in charge and they actually believe this memorial is not inclusive.

During my tour in Germany, I spent a couple of years on Battalion Staff. When someone was celebrating a birthday, the Colonel's secretary (a woman), would order a "special" cake from a nearby birthday.

The cake was an anatomically correct version of a buxom female, with a cherry in a strategically located spot. The birthday boy (there were no women in our battalion) was obliged to eat the cherry.

Those were the good old days (79-81).

The VA should just hire greeters to spit in veteran’s faces when they come in the door.
Maybe say “Joe Biden has you in his thoughts” after they do it.

There's a "Lack of Inclusivity" in this cotton-picking photo, so we need to stop displaying pictures of this nature.

The Department of Veterans Affairs has named a new director to its beleaguered Phoenix VA Medical Center, and the decision instantly came under fire because the appointee left a previous hospital leadership post after it got the lowest satisfaction rating of any facility in the VA system.

RimaAnn Nelson, who most recently headed a tiny VA clinic in the Philippines, is expected to take charge of a Phoenix VA Health Care System that was the epicenter of a national crisis over its treatment of veterans. She is the seventh director during the past three years to enter a revolving leadership door at Carl T. Hayden VA Medical Center.

Members of Arizona’s congressional delegation reacted to the announcement with dismay.
