On may 15, 2014 Senate Socialist Bernie Sanders went on CNN to defend the VA adminisration.

Sanders told Chris Cuomo:

“People die every day.”

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

The Examiner reported:

In a recent exchange with CNN’s Chris Cuomo, sparks flew as the CNN anchor held Sanders to task if the secret scheduling delays at the Phoenix medical facility led to negligent death. As Sanders attempted to get off that vein of discussion:

"We know that people die every day. We don’t know why they die. All right – anyhow, Chris, I don’t want to argue that point until the cows come home. Here’s what you’ve got: you’ve got a system that, by and large, I think, works reasonably well for veterans."

“People die every day.”

And some die before their time, and the objective of healthcare/hospitals is to extend, not shorten lifespans, and also not to grow government, ya friggin' socialist moron.

“People die every day” must be some new Obamacare slogan.

I got a similar message last month from my doctor when I had a uti infection and wanted antibiotics. “Women all over the world get that, and they don’t take medicine.” I had to push him for a referral to a specialist, which took two weeks to get.

I hadn’t noticed that I lived in a third world country, but I guess we all do now.

i say we change bernie’s hcare to the va system and see how he likes “reasonably well”.

I am sure he would like it just fine.

The VA is just like socialist health care anywhere else. It is a two tiered system.

The elite get the best and everyone else get what is left over.

“i say we change bernie’s hcare to the va system and see how he likes “reasonably well”.”

Actually, everyone in congress who voted for Obamacare—and their staffers—should be moved into the VA system.
