As the scandal over falsified waiting lists continues to engulf the Department of Veterans Affairs, VA Sec. Eric Shinseki is facing mounting calls for his resignation from even members of President Barack Obama’s party. On MSNBC on Friday, Chairman of the Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) blamed veterans groups and the Koch brothers for the increasing pressure leading Democrats to join Republicans in calling for Shinseki to step down.
MSNBC anchor Chris Jansing asked Sanders if the pressure on Shinseki to resign from lawmakers and veterans’ groups had become overwhelming.
“Some veterans’ groups and some veterans’ groups have not,” Sanders replied. “I do understand, you know, the Republican Party, and the Koch brothers, and others are putting the money into television ads where people are running for reelection or running for election, and it is hard to stand up to that pressure.”

Socialism always fails no matter who the CIC or VA head is.
Without a profit motive, where’s the incentive?
Don’t tell me the altruism and good intentions of bureaucrats is enough.
Earth To Bernie:Did The Koch Bros. HIRE Him As Well?I Thought That Was Obongo??
VERY good, Laz! That should be forwarded to every effing libtard in the land... just to shut their sewer holes up.
I post it here from time to time. Every time I do, I add a few more sentences. :)
The Koch brothers killed the dinosaurs and JFK, and poisoned John Belushi’s ham sandwich.
And the Koch brothers pull wings off flies.
It’s great!
Oh, and the Koch brothers invented poison ivy.
So that's what it took to get ride of Shinseki. Maybe the Koch Brothers will work their magic and get Obama to resign.
blahblahblahblahblah
KochBrothers
blahblahblahblah
THAT’S GREAT!!!
Bernie Sanders?
LOL.
GTH and the sooner the better.
Bernie Sanders and Harry “Bunkerville” Reid blame the Koch brothers for the sinking of the Titanic, the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake, tornados, hurricanes, and the disappearance of Amelia Earhart.
Left-wing morons in the RAT party. The lot of them.
Bernie and Harry, please report to the nursing station stat!
We need to understand the attacks on the Koch brothers for what they are: part of a well planned effort to intimidate wealthy Republicans from donating, and thereby drying up a major source of money going into the coming campaign cycles.
There was an article on just this the other day. GOP/Conservative groups that are required to release the names of their donors are seeing massive drops in contributions ...
To: Bernie Sanders
From: America
“STFU, you f*****g commie!!!!”
It’s clear some member of Congress need therapy.
There’s nothing loonier than an old Socialist liberal. Those people are nuts. Socialism fried their brains.
Let me get this right. The Koch brothers are intent on getting Republicans elected. Their strategy is to get Shinseki fired? Wouldn’t the better strategy be to let this drag out to the fall? Sanders is an Independent. Does that mean left of the left?
Bernie you are the first moron not to blame Republicans. Koch Bros? Really?? How is that?
