I’ve read a lot of outrageous stories in my day. But this latest from an Illinois Veterans Affairs whistleblower is one of the most shameful things I’ve ever seen.
As a veteran, I care deeply about how our current and former military members and their families are treated by the government. Unfortunately, under President Barack Obama’s leadership, the VA has somehow managed to get worse and worse.
Now, reports out of Illinois say that one veteran’s hospital is so poorly run, they’re leaving the discarded corpses of my fellow brothers-in-arms to rot and decompose over months.
Illinois Sen. Mark Kirk has said that the Hines VA hospital “has been overrun with cockroaches and mold and left vets waiting for care for months on secret wait lists, has reached a new low in the treatment of our veterans. We now have reports of bodies being left to decompose in the morgue for months on end,” according to Fox News.
The problem is so out of control, “Some veteran’s remains have been left in our hospital morgue for 45 days or more until they are stacked to capacity at times,” and at least one had been left so long that the remains liquefied and the body bag burst open when finally moved.
Let that imagery sink in. Now, imagine if it were the remains of someone you know that served.
The mere thought that this could happen is enough to get the blood boiling. The fact that it IS happening is beyond reproach.
The failures of the VA under the Obama administration’s poor leadership has been well noted. It’s gone too far now.
These are the men and women that fought, bled, and sacrificed for our nation. To thank these honored dead, staff left them in discarded piles.
It makes me ashamed to be an American – something I’ve never once said before.
This isn’t the first time we’ve disgraced our veterans with broken promises. But this disrespectful final insult is a step too far.
It’s time for the president to step in. It’s time for Obama to use the executive powers he so readily used in the past for some good.
As a nation, we have a duty to protect our veteran’s dignity, in both life and death. We’ve failed.
That’s unacceptable. And it starts at the top.

Obuma is a disgusting Muslim who should be impeached. Clinton is a disgusting, lying, corrupt, murdering bitch that should be locked in jail for the rest of her life.
I agree with you totally!
Disgraceful! We wonder why Veterans are committing suicide? Obama has done EVERYTHING to dismantle the armed forces, humiliate its Veterans & aided in their demise. Why? There will be few who can fight back when our country is overrun. We think it can’t happen to us. But it WILL happen to us. “Those who refuse to look at the past are doomed to repeat it.” We have done this to ourselves.
In our selfishness, we sit by at the football game and watch grown men, who make millions of dollars, sit in the lap of luxury, and have fame with popularity, desecrate our flag & our country. Where is the outcry? Every single person in the stands should do something. Forget about the NFL, the coaches and the owners. Why dont WE do something? Let’s not go to the games, for starters. But that would be an imposition on our trivial lifestyle. After all, what would we ever do without football or any other sport for that matter? If each person refused to go watch the games, they could give the money to our veterans and the owners would have to choke on the severe lack of revenue. There is no bigger statement and no greater gift to those who have fought in our stead. No one would be in the stands to witness these atrocities against our wonderful country, nor cheer on these weak, pathetic men. I would take one Dakota Meyer, Kris Paronto, Mark Geist, John “TIG” Tiegen over all the football players in the world. They have more class, honor, patriotism and integrity in their little finger than all these degenerates put together. Yes, I said degenerates. Political correctness aside, isnt that what they are? Totally motivated by selfishness, ego and conceit. Why don’t the coaches do something? Why dont the fellow players do something?
“Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves; do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others”. (Philippians 2:3-4)
We are we not outside of that VA by the 1000’s? BLM puts us to shame. After all, when they see something …… they SAY SOMETHING! We should be shouting from the streets, rooftops, microphones to all those who defame our beloved country … we have all had ENOUGH! We will not stand by and watch Obama do one more thing to disgrace our country, our flag, our national anthem, our Declaration of Independence, our Constitution and most of all, the American people who have given their lives, their possessions, their wellbeing to give us lavish freedom like no other country has ever had. We have allowed him to take over our courts, our streets, our true citizens, our government, our Congress and our Courts. He has caused division, animosity, and death. He uses propaganda to brainwash our children, the weak and those who are without hope. He lies, he cheats, he intimidates, he blackmails and commits treason. Because we do nothing, we disgrace all those who have gone before and those who are still with us.
Don’t we owe them more than that? Don’t we owe them just a little bit of our time? A little bit of our generosity? A little courage in the face of fear? A little dignity for the sake of theirs?
“There is no greater love than this; than a man lay down his life for his friends”. (John 15:13)
These men and women have laid down their lives for their friends, families, neighbors, and most of all for people they don’t even know. How many of you would give up your life? How many would give up an arm, a leg, two legs, the wellbeing of our minds because of what we are forced to see. We won’t up give 3 hours of a football game to stand by their side and reject what is being done to them and our country. Just because we have the blessing of so much freedom does not give us the right to use those same freedoms to dishonor our country. Let’s stop talking about the “right to free speech” when it clearly violates the well-being of someone else.
“For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing.” (James 3:16)
Of course, this requires moral fiber which is truly the underlying problem. Our Congressmen are full of greed and cowardice. Our courts have thrown out our Constitution and make up laws on their own. Our president repeatedly commits treason, clearly hates Americans, hates our country and what it stands for, sells our country to the highest bidder, facilitates death of American citizens, stands by while innocent men, women and children are ruthlessly tortured, sold into slavery and slaughtered.
“But know this, that in the last day’s perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God … “ (II Timothy 3:1-4)
Yet we all stand by and watch it continue to happen. What does that say of us? Our Declaration of Independence states this:
“Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”
If we hope to hold onto our liberty and freedom:
“But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”
“Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States.”
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” (II Chronicles 7:14)
This is what we much do in order to save our nation. First, we need to turn our hearts toward our Heavenly Father. Whether or not you believe in a deity, history has proven that righteousness always trumps evil. Secondly, we need to Declare our Independence once again. We need only look to our founding fathers for the answer. They wrote it down so we would know what to do when this moment came again. What will you do?
What a well written read, for all of us. You are right on. Thank you for your insight, and knowledge.
I’m blown away on what time my reply posted, in answering Janet. A good omen!
Thank you God Bless
Well said. Totally agree!
oh i so agree, TRUMP for president 2016. hes our only hope. i am praying every day TRUMP wins, and i know ,God is in control , not obama.
That’s right
He is exactly right.
Amen and Amen
You’re right Sandy! God IS IN CONTROL and HIS WILL is what we want because HE IS HOLY AND FULL OF GRACE!! Doesn’t describe Satan at all does it? Democrats belong to Satan and those democrats that belong to God, well they are voting with us this election!
Amen You said a mouth full. Obummer only does what suits HIM> And the hell with the rest of us. If any of us tried the crap he’s pulled we would be in jail so quick our heads would spin. And the same for Billary. Between her and her husband are there any more of a crooked couple in this country. You can bet Obummer told the FBI to grant her immunity. Pretty damn sad when everyone is granted immunity and then there is no one left to question/ And how in the name of God can you be granted immunity and then sit in with a person who is being questioned. I believe this is illegal. But then tons of crap that they pull is illegal. And if you think Obummer was bad if Billary gets it it will be more of the same and worse. You can bend over and kiss your a** goodbye
This is why I say that the military should match on DC and take Obo out
Much as I hate to admit it, I am afraid we will have a female president after the November elections. The media, RINOs, big donors, and people with self-imposed “white guilt” will not allow Trump to win. If you pay close attention to the on line news, t here are already reports of people voting absentee 4 or 5 times. There area dead people registering felons IN prison in Californication will be able to vote now (hummm wonder who they will vote for???) Illegals on deportation lists being given citizenship and being told how to sign up to vote. I look at the people at Hillary’s rallies, and wonder what happened to their brain. And don’t you jut love it, when she talks to the press on her plane, they headline as “Hillary faces the press”. I am sure they ask tough questions, about like Chris Matthews and LesterHolt!! This election is a joke, too bad it isn’t funny.
Yep, add to the insult Clinton and Obama are both from Illinois and the icing on the cake, Senator Mark Kirk (IL) is campaigning for another term here. Using the, I’m here because I care about the veterans, vote for me schtick. He needs to put his campaign money where his mouth is.
Pack his worthless Mau Mau muzzie ass up and ship him back to which ever hell hole will have him or drop him in from 30,000 feet with a parachute. Let them deal with him when he lands. I strongly suspect that
he will not like the reception committee that is waiting for him. Good ridiance to bad rubbish and
may he enjoy the reception he get. We will not have to put up with his corruption lying and bastardization
of our nation any longer. While we are at it we need to also remove any and all who were put in to
office by him to spread the disaster he has been and the disease he has inflicted upon our nation and
the American Citizens.
Not only remove the people he put into office but remove those members of Congress that facilitated his election in the first place and helped to re-elect him in the second place. Read especially Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. As well as Killory Clinton.
You are so correct. this is a disgrace.. Obama is a disgrace in himself.. and yes, certainly Hillary is just as bad. she will follow in all of his footsteps he has made already to ruin our country ..
Like I said the other day, I remember the drill instructors telling us how lucky we were to join the service as we will get top level care. Like too many government officials they lied. The VFW’s Brian Duffy was fast to criticize Trump in August. He’s not too talkative about the disgraceful treatment of veterans. Time for individuals to write to their Congressmen and ask that out vets be treated better.
This Nation was built on Faith,Courage, and Freedom to utilize both….until this faux pa intern…I served well, nevr felt prouder than when I wore the Colors.
Let the maximum shame befall him. Hooooha to all U whov’ done likewise.
RWBwolf
Thank you for your service. God bless you always. Never be ashamed of the country you served, that’s sacred as well as our flag. Do be alarmed and ashamed of the ones trying to destroy what you protected with your life. As an American born citizen, I thank you for defending us and tell you I am proud of our military and will only vote for someone who whole heartly respects it. SEMPER FI. Huurah! Respectfully,
A MARINE MOM
I am a Vietnam veteran and obama is a islam nuslim who stated he hates whites and Christians, IMPEACH him and lock him up as he in islamic and destined to bankrupt the USA especially by making his syrian islam terroist. He already brought in rhousands of he calls refugees to help try to endanger American lives with taxes supporting them financially and it is known already 88 are known terroist, hillary will disgrace the USA if by chance blacks help her after the got obama in, he is in office controlled by satan himself, read the bible
He needs to be impeached before he declares Marshal law. He is asking for the people to rise up against his dictatorship. He has set him self as the god he believes him self to be and I recon if Hillary gets elected she will be his goddess No doubt they are conspiring together.
Both should be tried for Treason, and publically hung!
i think ur so right they are discussing to the american ppl. my dad who died from agent orange was up near the border of north and south. to me that women is a murderer and the jurk who is president have distroyed the ppl who keep us safe but he wants us to have her for our leader.. she only knows how to sell us american to the highest bidder. the fbi should do what they are suppose to do and put her in a cell that we will not every see again. i have read alot of the comments and i am glad that there are other ppl think the same as me. i am a true american who father and hubby fought for us. the vets and the military are getting shit on big time. we need to keep that women out of the office. we sure dont need “i didnt have sex with that women” in the white house either. i wonder if they know what it met to be behide the barn.
This Black NAGGA ASSHOLE DOES NOT DESERVE TO LIVE NEEDS A DATE WITH THE KKK
Let’s give “Bonzo O’Vomit” a real old time KKK rally invitation! Complete with all the Hoopla! Nothing but the best for our muslim destroyer of AMERICA!!
I totally agree. There is no truth or honor in the Democratic Party of today.
u are so right
I blame the republican party They haven’t done crap these past eight years to stop obama on anything. Same worthless pieces of crap will all be re-elected again. “NOTHING WILL CHANGE.”
As a 21 year veteran , Blame our people in power. They sat around and did nothing while the muslin president ran wild over our country. With the short time he has left some of our political people are saying he should be impeached. what a joke. And it seems that if crooked Hillary gets elected we will have more of the same.
There is no Democratic Party except in name. It was hijacked by the communists/collectivists/Marxists long ago, just as they said they would do in brochures in the late sixties.
Your so right
Would Oblama let muslims be treated like that? Would our politians be treated like that at Walter Reed? The only thing that prevents Oblama from having his head farther up his ass is his ears.
Absolutely! !
Here, here!!!
Obama will go down as the absolutely worst, disgraceful resident of OUR W.H.
Killary has said she will follow the idiots policies. We are in deep shit IF she is elected.
TRUMP 2016
He will only go down as anything other than a shining knight if history is not rewritten by the liberals who run most of the publishing houses, and television stations, and movie companies, etc.
I agree and I bet you his remains won’t be treated like this.
Let a vet take care of his burial plans! Poetic justice for all!!!
What did you expect from the worst President this country has ever had and he wants to replace himself with someone far worse, Hillary.
I think some of us were hoping that some of the Democrats would figure out what he is, but too few have.
You have to send a dog to kill a dog.
Amen!!!
clinton is just the disgusting waste of a human body
Democrats are sick animals and Muslim lovers, they should be shot.
We need to point out that by supporting Islam, the Democrats support human sacrifice.
That will get their attention, and they can’t argue it, since what the Muslims do is EXACTLY the same as what the Satanists and a few other cults do (call to their deity to witness, approve, and reward the murder).
It is the liberal media that has kept this under wraps to enable the Muslims to continue the practice of human sacrifice.
could not agree more
And Hillary is going to continue his policies if elected. This is Terrible and Hillary can’t be the president of deplorable, racist and other people that vote for Trump. With this proposal how can she become president to continue these failed policies and the sad thing more and more doctor and nurses are leaving VA on a daily basis.
Impeachment isn’t enough.We should face it we are at war with the enemy on our soil and in the government and start taking prisoners of war.It is obvious who they are. Knuckling under makes it worse and more dangerous.
I agree with you totally Obama will do anything to get rid of trump
because he will undue all the changes obama did against AMERICA
i do agree too and they should be tried for treason too
John F. Kennedy, His assassination on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas.
What about Obama assassinated? And his transvestite husband Michelle ?
Michelle Obama, First Lady of the United States, was born Michael LaVaughn Robinson in Chicago, Illinois on January 17th, 1964. (Compare ‘Michelle’s’ hands to a real woman’s hand.)
FACT! Now you know.
Why is she able to continue to do the terrible things she does. She and her husband should be shipped out somewhere never more to be heard from.
Sorry! It figures. The TOP hates America. Why would they respect our fallen heroes?
It’s obvious to everyone sans Michelle Ma Belle and his stable of sycophants that O’bozo the “Big Eared Clown” Coward-in-Chief that he is and has proven to be totally unfit to serve the country in any capacity.
Obama/Clinton show how they honor our veterans…..so, who are the real deplorables?
well put obama and lyin, criminal are in all non support of our country, voters wake up, she just wants your vote, she is evil like obama
The real deplorables are the idiots who voted for Obama and who would vote for Hillary!
right on in true statement
Obamanation will not do anything for this country. he is totally mindset against it.
If this is true this Vet is outraged!
well put obama and lyin, criminal are in all non support of our country, voters wake up, she just wants your vote, she is evil like obama .
This is a total disgrace, don’t know what we can do about it because Obama does what ever he wants!
Lois
We can VOTE FOR TRUMP for starters!!!!!!
more whites get out and vote TRUMP, as obama stated he hates whites and true Christians and his hatred for Israel and jews, obama, clinton Jesus was a jew that willingly died for all mankind not islam muslim
I agree with Frances Shannon’s comments!
I am a Veteran and want to ask where is our so called leaders in DC. They have the power to fix this and are doing nothing,They let odumbo get away with anything he does or doesn’t do.As a leader he is a total joke. The only thing he led America to is hatred and race baiting and he needs to be impeached
Oh how I agree with you. But seems no one has the b*lls or is to afraid to start an impeachment proceeding.
Impeach, HELL NO!! Burn HIM at the stake, HELL YES!!
Semipermanent Fi I agree with you entirely, us veterans & senior citizens are NO CLASS CITIZEN in our own country, we have been lied to, betrayed, slapped in the face, stabbed in the back and punished for nothing, that’s the thanks we get for being faithful, loyal,dedicated, gung ho,stars & stripes flag waving years of serving & working for our country. We had 8 years of that damned POS white trash Communist, draft dodger, Whinny cry baby, Sleazeball, former Figurehead Bill Clinton who invented the government shutdown in the White House. I’m voting for Donald J. Trump, I don’t want that damned POS white trash [email protected] Hitlery Killery ROTTON Ayatollah Khoemeni Clinton in the White House. That [email protected]&CH has to be stopped, the best way to do that is on Election Day is vote for the Trump-Pence ticket and encourage others to vote for the Trump-Pence ticket. TRUMP-PENCE ALL THE WAY. TRUMP-PENCE 2016 & 2020. I come from a family that served either in the Navy or Marine Corps. I have a nephew that is a Major stationed at Quantico MCB & a nephew that is a Chief in the Naval Reserves and a future nephew in law that is now a Lieutenant JG on a submarine out of Groton, CT. I served in the Naval Reserves, active duty Navy, worked at MCRD San Diego, NAS Miramar-Now MCAS Miramar, at AMARG at Davis-Monthan AFB, my oldest son will be retiring in May from the Air Force, he broke tradition by going into the Air Force, so did a few of my nephews & second cousins.
thank u for ur and family service. u are our hero. who is gettting the shaft. the vets are not getting what our congress way back when said all vets will get free health care, it has been falling big time in the last 8 years. we got a jurk who hates our military and the women who doesnt care of our military either. she has lie to us about raising the taxes for richie and she know and i know she cant even do that. I WISH THAT THE WOMEN AND MEN WHO BELIEVE HER SHE IS A LIES AND SHE WILL NOT DO WHAT SHE SAID. THINK BACK OF WHAT SHE SAID AND BELEIVE 25% OF WHAT SHE SIDE
Impeachment? NO! This black bastard and his whole family need to be executed by firing squad or hanging! Comey should be strung up by the balls for being a coward and letting Hillary and her five off the hook. They have rotted our country and deserve the worst punishment we can administer to those RATS.
I am a Veteran and want to ask where is our so called leaders in DC. They have the power to fix this and are doing nothing,They let odumbo get away with anything he does or doesn’t do.As a leader he is a total joke. The only thing he led America to is hatred and race baiting and he needs to be impeached
I double tapped on the post comment
agree brother, nam vet semper-fi,always faithful to fellow vets and the USMC
marines dont leave any one behind.
Semper Fi-
D’OweBama should never be impeached. He should simply be arrested, tried, and convicted of everything from fraud to Treason, then imprisoned, preferably at Leavenworth, where he can spend the rest of his miserable life being screamed at by Marines every waking moment.
Look, only LEGITIMATE officeholders can be impeached. D’OweBama was NEVER a “natural born” Citizen, because that status is ONLY accorded to those born of TWO US Citizens.
The First Congress, Second Session, wrote the Law on this(they’re the Law-MAKING body). Google “first congress, second session, natural born” to prove it to yourself.
On top of that, when McCain was running for preznit, the Senate of that year, in S511, CITED that very law when declaring McCain eligible – so anyone saying “oh, that law is old and has been superseded” needs to go and tell the Senate…
He is likely not a U.S. citizen, so charging him with treason would probably get the documents proving his real citizenship produced within an hour, so that he could avoid the punishment for treason.
But doesn’t espionage still carry the death penatlty?
Yeah. But remember, vote for Duckworth the disabled vet, regardless of the conditions SHE has tolerated.
How can this be happening in America??
Why isn’t the National press on top of this report? Is this really true? Disgusting anyway you look at it?
Aggie, Think about it, the only derogatory remarks are made against Trump and nothing derogatory is said about Clinton and just about all the papers and media are supporting Clinton and most so-called journalist are to afraid to report anything for fear of loosing their jobs as their bosses support Hillary and will not let them say anything that could hurt her run for office
This about our Veterans rotten away in the morges ? is the most horrible news I have ever heard. He is the most sorry human being I ever saw or heard of. If I would be Mr.trump I would not ever never shake his Hand at the turn of office never. Would it be me I would spit in his face. As well as Hillarys. Who will do anything???? do about this???? Who?????Who gets in touch with the Families notify them of this or what is being done??????god help usPlease. !!!!!!!!!!!!Id prayer HEKPS I DO IT ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT.
You can call Obama and Clinton all the names you want but it will do little good. You can make comments here all you want and it will do little good. You need to be writing letters to newspapers and calling your representatives demanding an explanation. Don’t call once. Call many times. Call the WH and demand to know what will be done to correct this shame. If you haven’t called your congressman and senator today what are you waiting for.
Richard browning!!!
Writing to the newspapers will do NO GOOD!! The media and newspapers are all in cahoots with the Democratic Party. Have you not been paying attention to all of the slime ball news papers around the country that after hundreds of years of endorsing republicans, are now endorsing Hillary??? How disgusting is that!????? I hope they ALL rot in hell. Talk about a job stopper!!!!! Many many people will be unemployed, -after the TRUE Patriots cancel their subscriptions. I did ! -after 20+ years. I refuse to listen to liberal dishonesty and I refuse to read liberal rags
Wake up!!!
The VA is a disgrace. The only one that can fix it is TRUMP. I spend countless hours and days with my father at the VA. It’s run like the dark ages. It’s disgusting
The major “News” media ARE the democrat party. They were bought up by socialists decades ago to be used as a propaganda machine for the DNC.
Richard, writing to the newspapers will do no good as Hillary has them supporting her as well as most of the media and to be truthful about this (as she stated the VA is just fine) would only hurt her campaign
No use in call the WH, they don’t fix thing they just cover them up, hoping you never find out. The WH is full of crooks and will do anything to enrich themselves and and everybody else goes by the wayside. If they spent as much time to try and fix problems as they do to cover them up we would be better off.
Thburtost outstanding comment l’ve read today. Being upset doesn’t help the situation. The US Congress is responsible for the problems we’ve been having for the last 56 years. They are suppose to make the “LAWS” and keep a check on the POTUS. If this country is in a mess it’s because we the people have failed to vote all those trifling, complacent, senile and corrupt politicians out of office. Most citizens are ignorant or just plana stupid when it come to politics. They prefer to vote party lines when they are all the same democrats, republicans, independents and libertarians are all scrum. They make there deals under the table together and laugh at how assimilated we are. With our thinking to keep voting them back to office. I agreed Obama is scrum however, all of the previous POTUS were no better. I’m a veteran, but l’m not voting for Trump or Clinton. Hopefully a
third party candidate will be on the ticket. I don’t see the less of the two evils: Clinton/Trump are both the same garbage just on different ends.
As the wife of a Vietnam Veteran, I’m sickened everyday by the sins of this administration. Hillary will be more of the same. If we accomplish anything, we MUST stop her from winning the election. Our country is in serious, serious danger. And most people don’t know it. They are too young, or too old, or too self-involved, to notice. Its up to us, the silent majority, to get out there and vote. And to take our neighbors, and our kids, and friends along. We can’t get this wrong. There is too much at stake this time. Trump isn’t perfect, but he’s a Patriot. He’s the best hope we’ve got to turn our country around.
Why haven’t I seen this in the News? I watch Fox very often and I have not heard of this until now. This is despicable and embarrassing to say the least. It’s a sad day in America to find that this is happening to those who served. It turns my stomach to think of this neglect by the government we serve or served to defend right or wrong.
Jimmy Little!
The news protects the democratic idiots. Haven’t you learned that by now?
They don’t want Trump elected. He will bring out all of the corrupt behavior that has been happening for many many years.
Wake up people!!!!
Vote Trump – unless you will be happy living like they do in the Middle East, and now Europe
I Rather have trump any day then the lieing piece of works
This is the most disgusting thing this administration has done, and believe me they have done many disgusting things. Voting for Hillary will be a continuation of Obama administration.
This is heart braking. The most cruel done even to human being, and most especially to those veterans who’d died protecting our freedom.
While the Veterans Administration officers and staff have annual bonuses, and lucrative salary increases. The amounts even surpass those of the other government offices. I have a nurse friend working there, and she is so faithful to democrat Obama and Hillary, because she said, they are the best that takes care of government employees. Indeed they are. Residence at the DC, are the highest paid employees all over the country because majority of them work for the Federal government. They own the US Treasury.
You just stated that under obozo the VA has sunk to new lows and then you call for him to step up and take care of the situation. Guess what —- he couldn’t care less about you me or any other American citizen especially our Veterans. He is NOT going to take care of anything EXCEPT flooding this country with his radical muslims and his illegal hispanics. It is Congress who need to get off their lazy worthless gutless butts and do something despite the phony muslim-in-chief !!!!!! They need to start going over his head and take care of America– if they dare.
You are correct Gerry!!
Those of you who have ben paying attention over the past eight years have seen an historical decline of the United States. Obama was unheard of prior to the 2008 election the reason being that G.Soros and his organization have been on a mission to destroy America. He bought the last two elections and he bought this one too. Not long ago he said “Trump will win the popular vote but Hillary will win the White House”. If you remember, just prior to the 2012 election, Obama made a comment that was picked up accidentally on an open mike when he said to the Russian Prime Minister in Washington that “He would have more leeway ” in response to Putins request to Obama about America’s decline. That was a dead give away of the election results long before it took place. And remember when he said on his trip to Kenya that ” I can win a third term” which was an indication that if the Democrats were in dire straits about losing in 2016 Obama would and still may declare Martial Law and cancel the election if Hillary even looks remotely like she will lose. Obama and Soros have absolutely no use for America nor its people and his agenda is to have Radical Islamic Muslims and Sharia Law to take over the country and with Congress caving and helping him break the law and desecrate the Constitution he is swell on his way to fulfilling his agenda. If Obama was white he would have been thrown out, one way or another, long ago. The Military and all Veterans have been slowly dismantled and shoved aside so as to leave the country extreme vulnerable and the lives of 300 million people at risk. Washington and the Veterans Administration are a total disgrace.
Ditto
Wake up fellow citizens. A persons true character shines through their soaring rhetoric and flowery words simply by their acts or lack there of in the execution of their primary charge to keep; “The Commander in Chief’s first and foremost constitutional Charge” to “protect and defend our nation from all enemies both domestic and foreign.” Obama’s own acts have convicted him of dereliction of duty. The corrupt two party system and their accomplishers, the entrenched K Street DC “special interest” and the main stream media have allowed themselves to be neutered in the wake of the most astounding last two presidential elections when they collectively stood silently by and allowed a constitutionally ineligible candidate to be elected president not once but twice. The birth of the birther issue was a masterful stroke of a trained Community Organizer to deflect his true ineligible issue, he is the son of a foreign citizen father. The definition of “shall be a natural born citizen” is only achieved by being born to a mother and father who were themselves citizens of their country. lee1233
To solve a problem one must first define the problem. Obama is the problem. lee1233
And Hillary will be WORSE!!!
Agree right there, her husband that damned POS white trash, Communist, Sleazaball,draft dodger former Figurehead Bill Clinton who invented the government shutdown, weakened our nations defense in states that voted for him with his wonderful military base closures he had during his 8 years in the White House was the one who let our VA hospitals in many places slide downhill on purpose. You’re right, Hitlery Killery ROTTON Ayatollah Khoemeni Clinton is worse than what we now have. The damned POS white trash,racist,Communist Clinton’s are NO GOOD for the country. My fellow Veterans & fellow Senior Citizens are no NO CLASS CITIZENS in our own country, they love those damned ragheaded animals from Iran, Syria and all of the countries that hat our country, but yet they get everything they want on a solid gold platter while us Vets & Seniors get [email protected] upon us.
The United States Citizens must find a way to stop voting fraud. All these no show representatives have secured their positions by manipulating the voting process. How else can you account for such corrupt and ignorant decisions. And, don’i forget the media reporting.
Really disgusting. But what else may we expect? Also, Hillary will probably be almost as bad.
Hillary will finish us off
no she has sold the US out, crimes, FBI clear hillary of classified deleted e-mais, she will be much worse only wants the whitehouse to finish destroying the country with africa selling the immagrants to Lincoln and now they and islam terroist are always wanting more for doing nothing to support our country, only what they can get by not working
I’m from Illinois and I thought we only had government crooks, but at lease we put them in jail were they belong. New York has to learn from Illinois
The freedom of all Americans the Right to Bare Arms shall not be infringed. During our country’s early days of Independence from the British power we left England to seek a free land freedom of religion freedom to do as we choose freedom of speech the Declaration of Independence was written to protect each man woman and child in the new land called America. The right to Bare Arms shall not be infringed taken away rewritten omitted. We as the people must keep our arms intact. By doing this our country will remain free to protect our homes our families omit this Second Amendment and our Country will become a communist country.
As the wife a a vet . Im am horrified at the treatment of our vets and the conditions of hospitals . I would bet you it were Obama or any other rich how do you do , they would jump and get the finest of care . Bodies laying in morg’s for months at a time. and to top that off send them into killing fields for our government . then return the spoils to the enemy . so our men and woman fought for what ? I think this whole this is a disgrace against them as well as their honor ……..
Obama doesn’t care about anything unless it affects him personally. He has absolutely shown his disdain and utter disregard for our Veterans and the Mikitary. He doesn’t care. It’s not a big stretch to understand that the Republicans and Democrats who are in office right now don’t care either. Why are these scandals/problems at the VA still going on, and actually getting worse, and they do nothing about it at all. The Veterans fought for this Nation and the freedoms that we are all enjoying along with President Obama and the corrupt Washington elite. No one at the VA has been fired or even disciplined and the problems are getting worse. This is a national disgrace so how long are the American people going to allow this to continue? This is up to us because of our elected representatives, including the president, are so openly against correcting the problem at the VA and with the Military then we have to elect people that are concerned and will do something about it and kick these political hacks who are currently in office to the curb now.
Am doing that now. Thanks.
Instead of getting your jollies off talking to each other in this comment space, how about if each of us faxes or writes our local and federal representatives and DEMANDS an answer as to why this is happening? Then, since the mainstream media doesn’t cover these stories, what if we all wrote a letter to our local newspaper for publication in their letters section asking them why they do not cover these stories. There are enough of us out there that I am sure our papers would be getting more than one letter on this. If the letters aren’t published, I would barrage them with follow-up letters demanding to know why the originals weren’t published. We need to put the pressure on our legislators and publishers. The left does it very effectively. We need to play their game. Commenting in these columns isn’t enough. Look where it HASN’T gotten us. And people, get out and vote this November. Our LIVES and the LIVES of our children depend on it. WE have to get out and vote en masse, because the Dems are going to be playing dirty at the polls. They are going to use every fraudulent method they can to stuff the ballot boxes. We have to get out and vote and beat then with sheer numbers.
Reading this news clip caused me to break one my golf clubs as I was cleaning them.
In Vietnam I saw death all around me and reading this piece breaks my heart.
This guy has not a clue about freedom and it’s cost.
Golf is his only concern.
Ron-
It was J.R.R. Tolkein who posited that the game of golf began when a warrior struck off the head of his enemy, and it rolled into a hole.
May that fate await D’OweBama, who didn’t fiddle while Rome burned, but played golf and held fundraisers while Christians in the M.E. were being beheaded on a regular basis.
Obama is a disgusting piece of shit! the Dnc is corrupted
Oh, he’s worse than that!
He’s an evil monster, likely a minion of Satan.
Makes doo-doo sound downright mild!
Obama & Hillary sure didn’t waste any time giving Bin Laden a proper burial …….of course that was a Muslim thing! Don’t want to offend Muslims….No, NOT THAT!
Barbara-
He was allegedly fed to the fishes – i.e. his body was dumped in the ocean. No photos. Pray tell, how is that a “proper Muslim burial”?
i believe that Bin Laden died LOOOOOOONG ago, and the whole exercise was a charade to deceive Americans – or do you believe it was just sheer “coincidence” that a chopper full of these Delta Force commandos went down and killed them all?
The last two president’s have devastated this country, Bush and Cheney should be in prison for the crimes against the young man and women he sent to war on a series of lies. There were others involved in that fiasco as well. All of them should be in prison. WE as a people did nothing when the truth came out. Its our fault the corruption in Washington has gone off the charts .Hillary and Bill are career criminals that should also be in prison Again WE DID NOTHING as facts came out of all the low life things they orchestrated .They have been doing there underhanded deeds since the 80;s. When the facts came out what did we do? NOTHING A crook will do all we let them get away with so whos fault is it REALLY. We know for a fact the lies ,crimes ,and disseat Hilary and Bill have done and we did nothing. Now Obama is in office and the same corrupt government people are still in power so the game goes on. If Hillary wins the vary same and even worse actions will continue in Washington. There is a den of crooks and thieves running our country and have been for quite some time. The sad thing about it is we knew>AND DID NOTHING How long are we going to let this go on? We are the fast track to destruction and I don’t think Trump or any other president will stop it. The debt we are in is the down fall of our situation. It started many years ago and was kept hidden be the government to the point of being totally out of control. I wish I had better news but the fact is we are screwed and we can thank our leaders for the mess were in. They knew all along and did NOTHING to correct it. If Hillary gets in power it will be a faster run to the bottom. She has cut deals on her power mad run for the presidency and is locked in with the crooks and selfish politicians that have gained so much as we have lost, in some cases lost EVERYTHING in the process .Did any of them care? NO. What the sleeping people don’t understand about the leaders and top I% is ,they don’t care about YOU. Not at all. And most of the people just don’t get it. Well you will, and soon. Marshal law is around the corner. Its been in the works for years. When things get totally out of hand the 1% will join there off shore bank accounts and leave the rest of us to suffer the consequences. The internment camps that have been hidden are there for a reason. You’ll find out soon that all the (better life and prosperity ) they talk about, well that life isn’t meant for YOU. Ya I know some of you are saying,( your full of it) OK just wait and watch .Its coming as sure as there’s a cow in Texas. You better get ready . If you don’t ,you’ll have all this to think about as your herded into the fenced facility’s they prepared for you. We need to turn all this around ( RIGHT NOW ).It already be too late. When you vote think where you want to be in five years, and think where the last 2o years has put you. THE KEY WORD HERE IS THINK. You have a brain. USE IT. The facts are right there staring you in the face . Open you eyes before its too late. Get involved, check the facts for yourself don’t take my word for it. I think if you look you’ll see what I have told you here is true .Now what are you going to do about it. The government is here to do (FOR THE POEPLE) not for the few at the top.
OIbama is a disgrace, you can stop there no more need be said. He apparently worries more about the well being of the detainees in Guantanamo than “Our Own”. I wonder if that is his revenge for his failure to close that facility, one of his primary goals as president. He never hesitates to jump to the defense of muslim terrorist
Because “Our own” are not his own!
It’s amazing how many millions of Americans have been fooled by him; I guess drugs really are as bad in America as some say they are!
when something happens in other countries Obama can’t give them aid & caring fast enough, as for America he’s always playing golf or just to busy. impeach the S.O.B.& his legacy.
My father was a veteran. He went to the VA in SLC for help with his Maleria. He was so sick he couldn’t make it inside the hospital. He layed down on the grass to rest for a few minbutes. The grounds keeper turned the water on him and shouted for him to get his drunk ass off the grass. He was to sick to move. He finally made it inside the hospital however, they refused to see him because he was was driping wet and freezing cold from the sprinkler.
This is the thanks you receive from the VA when you serve your country.
Read this to know where Obama thinks our tax money should go and how they are rigging the voting election. This allows illegal persons to vote due to NO CITIZENSHIP VOTING DOCUMENTS REQUIRED. “The Obama administration rewards sanctuary states, counties and cities that shield violent illegal immigrants from deportation with hundreds of millions of dollars in federal grants and one of the biggest recipients recently made headlines for protecting a serial criminal who murdered a young woman. The money flows through the Department of Justice (DOJ), the agency responsible for enforcing the law and defending the interests of the United States. The DOJ is also charged with providing federal leadership in preventing and controlling crime, according to its mission statement, and seeking just punishment for those guilty of unlawful behavior.
Apparently this doesn’t apply to local governments that support the president’s broad open borders policies, even when they violate federal law. The DOJ doled out $342,168,401 to 10 sanctuary states and cities that proudly reject federal claims for criminal illegal aliens earmarked for removal, according to the agency’s independent watchdog. Among them is Connecticut, a trailblazer in the sanctuary movement that received more than $69 million in grants from the DOJ. Connecticut has long protected illegal immigrants with sanctuary policies and even offers them special drivers’ licenses, known as Drive Only. The state also gives illegal aliens discounted tuition at public colleges and universities and authorities work hard to restrict the feds from deporting illegal immigrants. Last year an illegal immigrant who had spent 17 years in prison for attempted murder stabbed a 25-year-old woman to death in Norwich, a city of about 40,000 residents. The murderer had been earmarked for deportation at least three times.
California, also a renowned sanctuary state that offers illegal immigrants a number of taxpayer-funded perks, topped the list with $132,409,635 in DOJ grants. Judicial Watch has investigated the state’s illegal sanctuary policies for years and back in 2008 launched a California public records request with the San Francisco Sheriff’s Department to obtain the arrest and booking information on Edwin Ramos, an illegal alien from El Salvador who murdered three innocent American citizens. Ramos was a member of a renowned violent street gang and had been convicted of two felonies as a juvenile (a gang-related assault on a bus passenger and the attempted robbery of a pregnant woman) yet he was allowed to remain in the country. Last year Judicial Watch obtained records showing that violent crime—including murder and rape—in the Bay area has skyrocketed since the San Francisco Sheriff and City Council expanded illegal alien sanctuary policies in 2013. Under the ordinance San Francisco law enforcement agencies are required to ignore most U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainers. Judicial Watch is also investigating whether the city violated the law again with its sanctuary policy that led to the release of Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez, an illegal immigrant deported five times who gunned down Kate Steinle at one of the most popular tourist spots in San Francisco.
Two cities—New York and Chicago—got $60,091,942 and $28,523,222 respectively from the DOJ and Philadelphia followed with $16,505,312. South Florida’s Miami-Dade County received $10,778,815, Milwaukee, Wisconsin got $7,539,572, Cook County, Illinois $6,018,544, Clark County, Nevada $6,257,9851 and Orleans Parish, Louisiana $4,737,964. In some cases elected officials in these municipalities brag about defying federal immigration laws. One, the mayor of Chicago, is mentioned in the DOJ Inspector General report for publicly stating: “We are not going to turn people over to ICE, and we are not going to check their immigration status.” The city also prohibits employees from cooperating with federal immigration authorities, the report says.
Other recipients of our taxpayer dollars do the same with no consequences. The Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office has an “ICE Procedures” policy that states the agency shall not initiate any immigration status investigation into individuals in their custody or provide the feds with information on an inmate’s release date or address. Philadelphia’s mayor issued an executive order stating that the pending release of the subject of an ICE immigration detainer shall not be provided to the agency unless the person has been convicted of a felony and New York enacted a law years ago restricting jail personnel from communicating with ICE regarding an inmate’s release date, incarceration status or court dates. The law resulted in ICE closing its office on Riker’s Island and ceasing operations on any other NYC Department of Corrections property, the report reveals. It’s beyond comprehension that these law-breaking local governments are being rewarded with federal funds distributed by the agency responsible for enforcing the law.”
THANK GOD THAT OBAMA FINAL MONTHS OF HIS PRESIDENCY ARE ALMOST HERE .WE NEED TO COME TOGETHER ON NOVEMBER 8 AND VOTE FOR D. TRUMP.SHOW THE WORLD WE ARE SMART PEOPLE. STOP TALKING TAKE ACTION.
It’s not over until the skinny man sings.
We HOPE he’s going to leave when he’s supposed to, but he’s followed few rules in that last eight years.
I couldn’t wait to go vote at the court house today when I was up there to pay my Taxes. I voted for TRUMP!!!!! I believe Bill Clinton was the President that signed the NAFTA BILL and many many of our factories went to other countries, causing many many Americans to lose their jobs, homes and autos. We don’t need any more of the Clinton’s in the White House.
My father was in the 2nd ww and was a dr in the Marines. My step father was in the 1st and 2nd ww and was a Marine in the first and Army in the Second. If they were alive today and heard about this both of them would go to the VA hospital and reaise hell there. I did not vote for Obama and I will not vote for Hillary. She should be in prison in a dark hole with her husband and Obma should be strung up by his feet and left to die in a dark hole for what is happening to a veterans
A close friend of mine working for the govt (retired now) happened to be in a foreign country at the same time Sec. of State Mrs. Clinton. As he happened to be in close proximity to her a young soldier asked the sec. if he could have his picture with her as his parents Happened to be supporters. She agreed if only he would go change into his civilian clothes. As he was on duty and proud of the uniform, however could not agree to the commitment, and was obviously disappointed. This women wants to be CIC of people she holds in such low regard or at least of the uniform. There are thousands of these small incidents of this women’s disregard and total contempt for the average American. It is a well known fact that as a secret service agent, being put on her detail is punishment. She is the epitome of mean and nasty and will drop the f-bomb at anyone when she is upset. She has neither the temperament nor the good judgement to be our president.
Why so much hatred toward all Democratic POTUS? l agree Clinton and Obama are low lifes. However, what about all the other Presidents and Secretary of States before them? GWB, WJC, GHWB, RR, JEC, GF, RMN, LBJ, JFK, DDE. Remember all the latest wars were started by Republican POTUS. And we are still fighting wars over the pass 50 years they have started over nothing but “LIES”. I dislike all politicians. Everything in politics is rigged, especially elections. Congress is worthless, because they are all brought and paid for by corporate businesses. And we wonder why they refuse to do there jobs. Make the “LAWS” and a check and balance system to keep the POTUS in check. The Department of Veteran Affairs need to separate from the DOD. Congress don’t care about veterans or the VA System when it comes to funding under DOD. Because they reap the benefits from there investments in the businesses that receive government contract from DOD. Obama and his administration is just a part of the problem. Tell congress to pull there pants up and start doing there jobs.
Stephen – Sadly, the impostor in the oval office, could “care less”; in fact, his outright disrespect of our military men and women is a well known fact. Nothing will change until we get rid of him.
From what I heard, it was like the opening scene of Monty Pythons’ “In Search of the Holy Trial”. Wherein a man is pulling a cart and yelling; “Bring out your dead!” The same thing happened at that VA hospital and as they discovered that a corpse was not yet dead, they simply whacked in the head with a heavy blunt object until it was dead, but all they could charge the VA personnel with was the desecration of the dead, and not murder charges. This seems to be the conclusion to everything in the preset administration and the Hillary campaign, no evidence equates to no charges. “Bring out your dead!” “Bring out your dead!”
