Ok, I work for Department of Defense and my sister works for VA. She said that at her hospital in South Carolina and in the VA's largest hospital in Tampa, they have yet to hang pictures of any of the new administration, which is required in ALL VA buildings. Am I paranoid to have a strong feeling this has everything to do with his being black? She asked her hospital's public affairs person and they said the pictures would be ready in March. MARCH?! We've known who won since November 2008 and the official picture was available for print since before the inarguration.
If any of you work for VA and have your pictures up already, feel free to sound off here. I'd be interested to know if this is just a coincidence. Meanwhile, I'll just sit here and stew in suspicion.
I'll drop into my va liason's office this week and see if they've (updated) yet. here in truth or consequences, new mexico, things move at such a slow pace, a snail could cross a highway virtually unscathed.
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.
You know there are a lot of Federal office buildings and frankly that's a pile of prints that have to mailed out and framed. March doesn't seem all that outrageous. Just think of the nutty threads we would have had to contend with if Obama's portrait had been prepared and shipped so that they could be put on the wall Jan 20th?

Let me know when we vote a socialist muslim into office then.

I don't think it's suspicious either. It souns just like another case of the government moving slowly
I'm sure they will meet their estimated time frame, probably even earlier. If it takes a little longer i'm sure it'll be justified because unfortnately there are a lot bigger fish to fry .

I live less than a mile from the VA Hospital in Columbia. I'll keep an eye on it.

Considering that the VA is run by the government, I'd say it's MORE likely that they screwed something up and picture is back-ordered.
But don't worry. It should be there some time next year. Maybe.
