So at least I understand this Administrations screwed up priorities. Ignore the men, women and families that fought and, in some cases, had a loved one die for this country and divert the people responsible for their care to deal with a failed government entitlement program to try and save your azz.
This President deserves everything that is coming to him. I believe that a vast majority of this Presidents lies and deceit are going to come back on him 10 fold over the next couple of months. He thought American's would side with him when he let and encouraged kids to come to our country illegally and found out that it back-fired on him. The list goes on and on and on.. He's toast.

I suspect this has been going on for quite a number of years. This just didn't happen with Obama in office. So I guess we can blame a few presidents.

Atlanta whistleblower to testify on VA scandal
By Brad Schrade
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
A Veterans Affairs whistleblower from Atlanta has been invited to testify before Congress in a hearing next Tuesday that will examine the growing number of whistleblower complaints across the Veterans Health Administration and a pattern of retaliation against those who speak out.
Scott Davis, a program specialist at the VA’s national Health Eligibility Center (HEC) in DeKalb County, confirmed for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution that Congressman Jeff Miller, R-Florida, invited him to testify next Tuesday at the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, which Miller chairs.
Davis drew the attention of the committee following Sunday’s article in the AJC that detailed his effort as a whistleblower at the HEC, where he says mismanagement and a focus on bonuses for top leaders hurt veterans programs. Davis said he was retaliated against when he started speaking out about the problems in January, which included his allegation that a $5 million federal contract was mismanaged by HEC.
He said he plans to tell the committee about these problems and the retaliation faced by those who speak out.
“It seems surreal because you shout for so long with no one listening and now to be able to go be able go before Congress I think is an amazing victory for the fight for quality veteran healthcare,” said Davis. Davis, whose story is gaining national attention, is also scheduled to be interviewed on Fox News at 4 p.m. today with Neil Cavuto.
The VA Inspector General’s office is investigating some of the problems, including the possible purging of more than 10,000 veterans health applications. Davis said since Sunday’s article ran other VA whistleblowers in Atlanta have reached out to share their experience.
“I plan to (also) tell the story of other whistleblowers who have contacted me since the article ran,” Davis said.
In Washington Tuesday, Acting Secretary of Veterans Affairs Sloan Gibson pledged to protect employees from retaliation in a meeting with Carolyn Lerner, special counsel of the U.S. Office of Special Counsel, which investigates whistleblower complaints across all agencies of the U.S. government. Last week, Lerner issued a scathing letter to the White House, detailing problems with how the VA treats whistleblowers.
The Health Eligibility Center where Davis works manages enrollment and eligibility across the VA system and helps provide guidance and oversight on these matters to the VA’s 152 hospitals across the country.

So where did that thread title and headline in your hyperlink come from ?????
Where does it say that it's been going on for years and the fault of a few presidents. Maybe I missed it but, I didn't read anything like that in the link.

Now I see why you support the village idiot.. Obamacare didn't come into play until the moron signed it into law.. I don't know what more to say.. I really don't..
