(The Spokesman Review/AP) Donald Douglass aged 57 had a small spot in his forehead when he went to the Seattle VA in 2011 a biopsy confirmed it was cancerous but it was four months before the VA Hospital scheduled an appointment for him to have it removed and by then, it had spread, wrapping around a facial nerve and getting into his blood.

The delay proved fatal, a said his Atty Jennifer Holman of Tacoma. “Had he had his surgery timely, he’d be alive today.

” While the VA said it would schedule an appointment for Douglass to have the necessary surgery at the University of Washington Medical Center, it dragged its feet,” Holman said.

Douglass repeatedly checked in about whether the appointment had been scheduled and there are notes in his patient records indicating that he was still waiting for surgery. The surgery was finally performed in September 2011 but by then the cancer had spread. Douglass suffered facial pain and paralysis and died a little more than a year later.

(Weekly Standard) Obama Is So Mad…RNC Press Secy Kristen Kukowski writes in an email to reporters:

“Not only does Obama learn about scandals in the news, he’s also been’ mad as hell’ before–IRS, ObamaCare, GSA wasteful spending, Fast and Furious, Secret Service…”

Now the Veterans Administration

White House aides claim Obama learned of these specific allegations in ‘news reports’ according to the NY Times declaring their ‘outrage’ (again) a common theme of the Obama Administration likely hoping, that this latest evidence of malfeasance may soon be dismissed as just another ‘phony scandal’ what Obama calls the Benghazi terrorist attack which resulted in the deaths of U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other American Heroes.

What are Democrats So Afraid of in Benghazi House Select Committee Investigation?

Democrats Benghazi InvestigationDemocrats Throw Temper Tantrum Over Benghazi Select Committee

(Townhall) Will House Democrats participate in the Benghazi Select Committee or not? At this point, its anyones guess–This morning, Democrats are meeting behind closed doors to debate the question.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) has demanded an equal split on Benghazi Select Committee–Good luck with that as Hot Air points out. Pelosi’s own track record sets the precedent. Remember the House Select Committee on Global Warming in 2007 when Democrats were in charge–Pelosi gave Democrats 9 of 15 seats on that committee.

“Thomas Lifson recently gave compelling reasons why House Democrats run grave political risks if they boycott the select committee to investigate Benghazi,” writes Bruce Walker at American Thinker. “Congressional Democrats like the establishment leftist media, have been so fawning and flaccid in dealing with Obama that what few microns of credibility they may have had with Conservatives–may soon blink out of existence.”

What is really up with the Democrats selected outrage into the House  investigation of the 9/11 Benghazi terrorist attacks, the murders U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the three other brave American heroes?

“What difference at this point does it make,” Hillary Clinton earlier asked?

Much since Clinton and Democrats have asked and if they don’t know why, it does matter.

Could It Be Senator Harry Reid, That You Are Actually One of the Real Domestic Terrorists?

Friday, April 18th, 2014

Domestic Terrorists

(Washington Times) On Thursday, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) called supporters of Nevada Rancher Cliven Bundy “domestic terrorists” turning up the rhetorical heat on what has been a tense standoff last weekend.

So let me see if I have this straight. The Feds spent wasted $3.Million+ of the taxpayers money according to Human Events sending in armed federal officers involving both air and ground assets to the Bundy Ranch in Nevada, which allegedly owes some $1.1 Million in grazing fees and were met by local citizens (many of which were Sen Harry Reid’s constituents, I digress) protesting the Fed’s overwhelming use of force and Sen Reid calls them domestic terrorists.

Flashback: Remember when Obama’s DHS Chief ‘Big Sista’ Janet Napolitano claimed that our returning American Heroes, white-middle class Americans, anti-Abortion activists and those in favor of Constitutional limited federal government were the ‘new’ domestic terrorists.

Could it be that Sen Harry Reid and out-of-control big money spenders in Washington that have run up a crippling $17.582 Trillion federal debt and will waste $3 Million+ of the taxpayers money for an operation on a remote Nevada ranch in the middle of ‘Nowheresville’ that many of us never heard off before the last couple of weeks, are the real domestic terrorists, threatening our economic security, freedom and liberty for what?

Bill ClintonWhen Did Military Bases Become “Gun Free Zones” –Image: Bob@Twitter

(Breitbart) Its hasn’t always been the case that only Military Police could carry firearms on military installations–a mere 21 years ago, according to The Washington Times Bill Clinton made military bases “gun free zones” effectively disarming potential victims and not criminals.

One can thank blame President Clinton that our American Heroes could not return fire in 2009 when Islamic Jihadist Nidal Hassan murdered 13 soldiers and wounded  32 others at Ft Hood and todays shooting which left 4 dead and 14 injured.

Intolerant Atheists Demand This 91 Yr Old Peace Cross WW I War Memorial in Maryland Be Removed

WW I MemorialJordan Sekulow, Exec Director of American Center for Law & Justice Visits the Circa 1923 WW I Memorial in Maryland

(FOX News) Stephen Lowe of The American Humanist Association claims this 40 foot tall 91 year old Bladensburg Peace Cross War Memorial dedicated on 13 July, 1923 by the American Legion to commemorate the 49 men of Prince George’s County that died in WW I is so upsetting whenever he passes it for it somehow represents the state endorsement of Christianity.

Riiight…

The WW I memorial was initially erected on private property according to The Washington Post but as traffic intensified in the area, the State of Maryland which owns the nearby public roads, encircled the monument, redesigned the intersection and the WW I Memorial was transferred to the park and planning commission in 1960

BHOObama Talks With Zach Galifianakis Between Two Ferns

(Breitbart) With 3 Americans missing from Malaysia Airlines #370 which appears more and more likely to be a terrorist attack together with the ongoing crisis with American and British ally Ukraine, the deaths of 4 American heroes in Benghazi and more dismal economic news being reported–labor force participation rate hits record low for young people, it would seem that Obama, would more important things to do with his time than making an appearance on a satirical “Funny or Die” video with Zach Galifianakis championing ObamaCare.

If ObamaCare is really the greatest thing since sliced bread and working as good as Obama claims, then why is it that the percentage of uninsured (which we were told ObamaCare was to help) is nearly the same as when Obama took office?

Inquiring minds want to know.
