All this does is illustrate that Republicans work more effeciently than Democrats. And given that the VA has a backlog of 14 months, are they really the people to complain about anything? Sillybear, or whatever your name is, get help. YOU are the problem.
Why is refusal to display the photo of the current US president not a problem for you?
It's a government office and this is a requirement.
Army had the photo up same day.

I don't for a second think it is anything more than typical govt. "efficiency".
Good for them. It is their right if they don't want to hang pictures of America's biggest mistake. You think when we took this country from England that the founding fathers were thinking that we should be forced to hang pictures of Socialist on our walls? No, it is our right to not hang photos of a socialist muslim.
Do you even know the definition of "socialist"? Do you even know the definition of "Muslim"? Do you even know the definition of "o"f?
In response to a query from several constituents, Senators Bill Nelson and Mel Martinez issued a joint statement today.
"Several parties have contacted my office concerned about the fact that Obama's picture is not hanging in the Tampa VA hospital. We would like to address the allegations that racism is involved", stated Senator Nelson. "The issue is not racism, but just the opposite. The official picture sent sent via email was in fact a "colored" picture. Government offices were notified of the error minutes after the email was sent", he continued.
"President Obama has requested that federal agencies only hang Black and White photos, out of respect for his recently deceased grandmother, as well as all Anglo-Americans", continued Martinez. "We hope that American's understand the delay. President Obama was concerned about the implications of hanging a color photo in public offices. He promised to be the President for all Americans. He intends to keep that promise."
"President Obama has assured us that a revised image will be sent via email as soon as possible. We ask that you direct all further comments to the White House", concluded Senator Martinez.
The Tampa Tribute contacted the White House for further clarification. White House press secretary Robert Gibbs issues a brief statement:
"President Obama is aware of the issue. He wanted to personally send the new picture himself via email. He is working closely with RIM to develop a new Black & White Berry. As soon as his new device has been cleared by the FBI, he will personally send a new picture via email to all federal agencies for display."
On a side note, Gibbs noted that from today forward, all electronic mail sent to women would be referred to as "femail", stating Obama was concerned about the sexist implications of the word "email".
Since Obama is the Messiah, hanging his picture on a government building will violate the separation of church and state.
I think you might be right ......
