IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN.
IT WAS REPORTED THIS WEEK THAT VETERANS WERE DYING WHILE WAITING
FOR APPOINTMENTS TO SEE DOCTORS OR GET TREATMENTS IN PHEONIX,
ARIZONA. WHERE IS SENATOR MC CAIN ON THIS??
ON HIS MORNING TALK SHOW, BILL BENNETT TOOK A CALL FROM A VETERAN
WHO SAID THAT HE GOT INJURED, WENT TO THE V.A. HOSPITAL; BUT HAD TO
WAIT FOUR MONTHS TO GET AN MRI....
ANOTHER CALLER WAS A FORMER EMPLOYEE OF THE V.A.; AND HE TALKED
ABOUT THE BUREAUROCRACY, THE PAPER SHUFFLING TO MAKE IT APPEAR
AS THOUGH VETERANS WERE BEING TAKEN CARE OF.....
WE HAVE HEARD IT ALL BEFORE. TEN YEARS AGO, UNDER PRESIDENT
BUSH,THEY PASSED SOME NEW LAWS AND MOVED ON; AND HERE WE
ARE AGAIN.
THE ONE MAJOR PROBLEM:
THEY CAN'T FIRE THE INCOMPETANT, THE BAD PEOPLE.
THE PERSON IN CHARGE CAN ONLY TRANSFER THE BAD PEOPLE TO
ANOTHER DEPARTMENT WHERE THEY CONTINUE THEIR LOUSY
PERFORMANCE.
THIS IS WHY I DON'T LIKE UNIONS, ESPECIALLY IN GOVERNMENT!
THEY HAVE NO FEAR OF THE CITIZENS WHO PAY THEIR SALARIES.
IF THE PERSON IN CHARGE IS THE PROBLEM IT'S EVEN WORSE....
YOU SAW WHAT LOIS LERNER, THE I.R.S. CHIEF DID....SHE PLED THE 5TH
OVER AND OVER, DEFYING THOSE IN AUTHORTY!!
THE CONSTITUTION GIVES THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF VETERANS CARE. REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRAT
MAJORITY, IT SHOULD MAKE NO DIFFERANCE; BUT IT DOES.....
WHEN DEMOCRATS ARE IN CHARGE, THEY NEGLECT OUR VETERANS,
THEY CUT FUNDING TO PAY FOR EDUCATION OR SOME OTHER LIBERAL
CAUSE.
WHEN REPUBLICANS ARE IN CHARGE, DEMOCRATS HINDER THE PROCESS.
YOU KNOW HOW THEY DO, THEY WILL LOAD UP AN APPROPRIATION BILL
WITH "PORK" FOR THEIR PET PROJECTS, THEN THE TWO SIDES WILL ARGUE
FOR SIX MONTHS, EACH WAITING FOR THE OTHER SIDE TO BLINK.....
USUALLY THE REPUBLICANS CAVE, IN THE INTEREST OF GETTING
SOMETHING DONE FOR THE VETS.
IF THE "PEOPLE" WOULD PAY ATTENTION LONG ENOUGH; TAKE SOME
NAMES, KICK SOME BUTTS, LET THE GOVERNMENT TYPES KNOW THAT
THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY IF THEY DON'T GET IT DONE, IT IS GOING
TO HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN.
SAY,, ISN'T THE V.A. A GOVERNMENT RUN ENTITY?? HAVE'NT WE
HEARD ABOUT THEIR INCOMPETANCE AND NEGLECT BEFORE??
NOW THAT THE GOVERNMENT IS IN CHARGE OF THE ENTIRE HEALTH
CARE SYSTEM, DO YOU THINK THAT THE GOVERNMENTS PERFORMANCE
WILL IMPROVE??
