Obama is worried that the sheeple may see the connection between government incompetence running the VA medical system and what would happen if we ever go to the liberals’ dream of socialized medicine for everyone.

VA death panels and unending waiting lists for medical services - coming soon to an Obamanation single payer health care system near you.

Gen (Ret) Eric Shinseki “exposed” his depth of critical thinking many years ago, while on active duty. He attended a change of command ceremony at USSOCOM (US Special Operations command) and notice how all of the men and women participating in the ceremony stood so tall and proud. He decided that the cause of all this pride was the berets they wore.

That’s right he latched on to the visual symbol of the pride. He ignored what those berets said about the people that wore them. He ignored the failures of 90% of the volunteers who stepped forward to compete for the honor of wearing a beret. I ignored the months of intensive training, mental, physical, and emotional. he ignored the horrendous TDY schedules around the world both into and out of live combat zones. He ignored the KIA and WIA numbers.

but, by God, he noticed and focused on those fancy berets.

After he got back to the five-sided playpen (aka the Pentagon), he directed that everyone in the Army would wear a beret. He even forced the Ranges to change the color of their berets.

Any questions about the root cause of his miserable performance at the VA?

Shinseki was the guy who tried to make part of the Army into the Marines. That’s how the Army got the Stryker. That was the vehicle designed to be transported by C-130 and ready to fight as soon as it was unloaded.....only it can’t.
