DEATH BY WAITING LIST


Informing and Equipping Americans Who Love Freedom


The VA Scandal Is Now An Indicator Of
What Obamacare Will Do To The American People

Jim Emerson, Western Journalism — During the investigation of the Watergate Scandal, Senator Howard Baker (R-TN) asked out loud, “What did the President know, and when did he know it?” This is a good question to ask the current resident of the White House. For although a very smart man (according to the left), Mr. Obama appears to be pretty damned ignorant of the various scandals happening on his watch. If the One only learns about Regime scandals from the media, he needs to fire his staff. After all, if these people are not telling him anything AND letting him get into trouble, he doesn’t need them. Besides, the faux outrage he employs when “learning” about the scandals—clearly a calculated political ploy–has been overdone.

What Obama Knew And When

After the 2008 election, the office of the president-elect’s transition team was briefed by the Bush Administration about the long waiting times and scheduling issues at Veterans Administration (VA) facilities. Senator Obama had already used problems with the treatment of veterans as an emotional campaign issue in 2008.

In April of 2010, the VA’s Deputy Undersecretary of Health for Operations and Management revealed the administration knew of inappropriate scheduling practices. The tactics included telling patients of VA facilities to call back for appointments in 30 days in order to make it appear that there was not a long delay to see a doctor. Such a manual logging system made it easier to hide long wait times from inspectors. Appointments were also routinely cancelled and rescheduled in order to reduce apparent wait times.

The mainstream media have been reporting VA mistreatment for years, so why is Barack only learning about it now? Must have been too busy playing golf or pandering to gay athletes.

How Will The VA Scandal Affect Obamacare?

Not long ago, the left promoted the VA as a national leader in health reform. It was the Democrat Party’s shining example of how wonderfully efficient government controlled healthcare would be. Well, the alternative media have not forgotten. The VA scandal is now an indicator of what Obamacare will do to the American people. Healthcare will be rationed by bureaucrats; and ailing Americans will be condemned to death, at least in part, by the corrupt manipulation of a waiting list.

OBAMA’S LABOR SECRETARY GOES FULL-ON COMMIE ON MEMORIAL DAY



Preached None Other Than
Communistic Collectivism

Jennifer Burke, TPNN Online Editor — On Monday, we celebrated Memorial Day, a day set aside to give thanks to those who lost their lives in service to America in the fight for freedom. In recognizing their exceptionalism, we realize America’s exceptionalism and the fact that men and women every day are willing to lay down their lives to protect America’s freedom and opportunity. Given the history of our country and the lives lost in the quest for and defense of freedom, the tweet of advice from Obama’s Labor Secretary, Joe Perez, is troubling enough. The fact that it was tweeted on Memorial Day, from his official Twitter account, even more disturbing.
Congrats to @oberlincollege grads today. Remember: Don’t let individualism trump community; move from a selfie culture to an #ussie culture.
— Tom Perez (@LaborSec) May 26, 2014
That’s right. Obama’s Labor Secretary tweeted encouragement to college graduates to forget about being an individual and about themselves, but not in the way that those veterans sacrificed themselves in the line of duty. No, he was encouraging them to ‘come over to the dark side’ by preaching none other than communistic collectivism – and the Twitterverse let him have it.
@JonathanHoenig It’d be bad enough if a naïve college kid said “Don’t let individualism trump community.” Just scary when @LaborSec does so.

@JonathanHoenig Collectivism is statism, aka tyranny.

@LaborSec @oberlincollege way to disgrace the entire history of the United States. Way to encourage us to become the antithesis of America

@JonathanHoenig Nothing rings of freedom like Commie banter from our @LaborSec on #MemorialDay

From lavish vacations and parties on the taxpayer dime to self-indulgent selfies to celebrate every monumental day in history, this tweet by Perez runs counter to what his boss does on a daily basis. But, hey, what more are we to expect from someone on Barack “Do As I Say, Not As I Do” Obama’s Cabinet. » Full Article
