The VA is a disaster. Waiting times have been horrifying and vets have died because of them. And they did it not just because of incompetence, but to save money.
Patients in a Southeast Texas Department of Veterans Affairs medical system faced denials or long delays in getting routine colonoscopies and other medical tests because of bureaucratic cost-cutting, a former top administrator told the Washington Examiner in an exclusive interview.
Dr. Richard Krugman, former associate chief of staff at the Veterans Affairs health care system based in Harlingen, Texas, said his boss implemented a policy in 2010 that colonoscopies would only be approved if the patient tested positive in three successive screenings for bloody stools.

This leaves no doubt for any sane person to conclude that the Obama administration is the most corrupt, vile and immoral of any since our Country's founding.
It is absolutely sickening beyond description.
Any corporate head under similar or lessor circumstances (Enron comes to mind)would be jailed by now.
Prison for all of them, including Obama.
Spending money foolishly that doesn't belong to them is one of the 2 things democrats do best. The other is lying.
This typical Progressive needs to face Civil suits until his own stools are bloody
