Obama’s outraged. Let’s see if he appoints an independent special prosecutor.

He’ll appoint Michelle to put all veterans on her healthy school lunch program.

Hoyer, whose district includes a large number of federal workers.

In other words, Hoyer's base constituents.

Unionized bureaucrats that can't be fired.

Far more important to Hoyer than any stinking veteran.

What amazes me is that the Office of the Inspector General is doing the right thing here (by reporting truthfully).

Evidently, there are still some honest people left in the federal hierarchy.

Another IG who has been sounding the alarm is J. Russell George at Treasury.

The IG’s may be one area that Obama can’t infiltrate.

Did you see what the doctor in Harlingen, Texas said? His boss issued a rule that to get a colonoscopy the patient had to have three stool screenings with blood. The doctor said by this time it was at stage 4 cancer.

People should be tried for murder. Couldn’t the states charge these people? Murder is a state crime.

I got to give it to Montel Williams. He’s fuming! He pointed out that only 20% of congress are vets.

The answer to this is to require every VA employee to be a veteran themselves. Only 25% of the employees are veterans. How can they care about these people.

The VA set up a Stockholm syndrome situation with our vets being the hostages. Recreated in a college basement (prisoners and guards) things went badly so quickly the experiment had to be cancelled. End the system, give out vouchers for care...

Check out "LIVE THREAD" post (posted 5:21pm today on FR) with link to CSPAN broadcast of Congressional hearing going on right NOW.

There is bipartisan grilling of VA uppity ups about this OIG report.

This has long since cease being a “scandal.” It’s something ghastly. The allegations are not only that treatment for eligible service members was delayed, to the point that some of them may have died because of that delay - The allegation is that good people died, and the M/F BASTARDS got BONUSES for it!

"The answer to this is to require every VA employee to be a veteran themselves."

Good try Kempster, but no cigar. What you are proposing is that the Government cease and desist from hiring Affirmative Action types, with a system run by H/R politically correct jackasses. Not going to happen.

C’mon Nanners, get out front and dispute this report.

You’ve got the idiots behind you, make it happen.

I didn’t say it could happen. I just said it is the solution. To your point though, I am betting that the staff could be maintained by all types of races, colors and creeds and they could all be vets if there was a will to do it.

The answer is to give every veteran a free pass to any hospital in America. Don’t ask me to die in combat for my Nation if my Nation lies to my oath.

I was guaranteed life health benefits 35 years ago for 1 term of 6 years. They took those years and threatened the hell out of Communism for it.

I want my healthcare.
