Obama 2012: "We've made the VA a top priority".

Obama, speaking at the VFW conventionhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAPpaM2Oszc, told those in attendance (around the 17min mark) "we've (which indicates 'he' is part of the 'we') made the VA a top priority". The speech, which included a brief recognition of the veterans, included a bevy of what "he" claimed to have done and what "he" would do to strengthen the military and make certain our veterans would be honored and receive the benefits they earned, was much more about his accomplishments than theirs. Yet, in the past weeks we've learned as many 40 veterans are DEAD while awaiting critical care from the VA & computer records indicated that the vets were not on a waiting list at all.

Not only that, but our so called "commander & chief", the man who stood before the veterans in 2012 and claimed he and his administration made the VA a top priority, didn't know until he heard it in the news. Top priority? Really? In 2012 I posted an article here about the VA. . The title, "SHAME: Backlog of Veterans' Disability Claims Increases 179% Under Obama", is still relevant today, but this time at least 40 lives have been lost because of his and his administrations neglect.

Wake up folks, this man is more than just a phony, he's an incompetent president who's neglect of his sworn duty is costing real American's their lives.

 

The VA medical system is just obamacare on a smaller scale.

 

Obama has no power. Congress has the power.

 

Obama runs the VA through his flunky Shinseki.

 

Wrong...He has a pen and a phone remember?

 

Who has the majority in congress?

 

Obama.

Dims control the senate and repubs control the house.

That gives obama two cards to only one for the republicans.

But dont suppose a foreigner could be expected to know that.

 

So then this is the republicans fault for not passing any vet bill

 

Yeah, right. Democrats have had majority in Congress (house) from 2006-2010.. Who's responsible again?

 

No vet bill is needed.

Obama just needs to give wounded vets top priority.

I dont think cdnpoli has even a minimal understanding of how our political system works.

 

But recently in the last few years is when the suicides went up

 

Me neither......

The Obama admin was told all about the issues at the VA in 2008.

 

Well there is a price to pay for your revenge wars.

This is part of that price.

 

Don't worry, when Canada needs us, you will pay that price as well.

 

Revenge wars?

Oh never mind, dont bother to explain.

Since you know so little about America your opinion is not worth much on this topic.

 

The President of the United States has no power?

Crawl back in your hole troll.

 

The country most likely to attack Canada is the US

It was your government who attempted to connect Iraq to 911 despite it not being true

But americans gulped it up

 

I'm really not interested.

We have enough America hating libs grown in America without including aliens from canada too.

 

If this was a top priority..... what in God's name is his lowest priority?

 

National defense.

 

Defense, jobs, middle class, small business, etc.

 

Not fundraisers or golf, that's for sure.

 

But, but, he's soooooo focused on those issues...(face palm)

 

Bingo! That's exactly what it is. The great system lib's continue to promote as god's gift to HC. And 40 dead...forget it...it'll mean nothing to them.

 

So, again, nothing is Obama's fault?
