Jay Carney, once again, has played the "we learned about this from the media reports..." when asked about the VA scandal. We have heard this line from this administration over and over again on every 'scandal.' I have two questions...

1. Do you think they're lying, or do you believe that they actually don't know jack shite until the media reports on things?

2. How are the 'best and brightest' among us, who know more about everything than everybody(therefore better qualified to run things), supposed to run the show when they don't know about anything that's going on?

Liberals don't care about results so long as they are in control. I've seen many issues with the VA treating veterans and after watching how they treated my best friend, nothing shocks me about them. Did anyone expect them to be treated well when the DHS considers veterans possible domestic terrorists?

I don't understand how they think that lame explanation makes them look any better.

ETA: .....but I'm not a dimocratix.

Obama appointed people to supervise every agency/department of the federal government. It is inconceivable that none of those persons were aware of any of these problems until the problems were reported in the media. It is even more inconceivable that not one of the people Obama appointed would have bothered to inform him, or one of his close advisors, of the problems within the agencies/departments they supervise when they became aware of the problems.

Ignorance by management is evidence of incompetence. Why and how the Obama administration is permitted to get away with repeated admissions of ignorance is a mystery. I'm not surprised that those who were loudest in endorsing Obama are the most reticent when it comes to questioning his competence.

They're lying.

Odumbo in 2007

To be fair to the idiot, as long as I can remember the VA has been known for inefficiency and often inadequacy.

And I'm sure the current administration of morons also knew very well the poor reputation of the VA hospital system and they have continued to let it flounder. To feign ignorance is just another lie.

And guess what the VA and Obamacare have in common? Government run healthcare. You are seeing a preview of Obamacare guarantee it. I dont care if you are Republican or Democrat, government cant run any type of business effectively.
