A headline from USA Today puts the lie to ‘no deaths caused by wait times’.

“VA: Delayed treatment led to cancer deaths”

But, at a Wednesday press conference, Obama made that ‘no wait-time deaths’ claim.

Obama responded to an AP question: “…the IG (VA Inspector General) indicated that he did not see a link between the wait and them (veterans) actually dying.”

Looks like he’s saying the VA doesn’t know what the VA is doing…

Which begs the question: Why is he letting them investigate themselves?

And Rush Limbaugh may have hit the nail on the head during his Monday show:

“You Must Make This Clear to People: This Veterans Hospital Death Panel Is a Preview of Life Under Obamacare.”

His point? The VA scandal shows the government cannot run a healthcare system effectively. If these VA wait-time cover-ups were revealed before Obamacare was passed, the citizen uproar would have derailed that Democrat legislation a-s-a-p.

So, they sat on the problem. But now, as the true incompetence of government-run health care unravels, it may cause Democrat Senate losses in November elections.

Now, the House reveals dozens of VA reform bills are stalled in the Democrat Senate.

What else can Democrats do, but send their Liar-in-Chief out one more time…

…to tell 1 more lie.

Lie to ’em, Mr. President…after all, they’ve been willing to swallow your lies before.

A ‘Hail Mary’, if you will. (Or, in this case…a ‘Hail Barack’.)

So, if you’re a Democrat, go ahead – swallow his latest lie, if you must.

We just ask this: if on Wednesday, Barack Obama said ‘a veterans (ability) to access benefits is not a new issue‘; ‘caring for our veterans is not an issue that just popped up‘; ‘I was working on (these issues) when I was running for the U.S. Senate (2006)’…

…how is it – at that same press conference – he also wants us to believe his implication that he’s just now hearing of VA ‘misconduct’ (we believe criminal) allegations?

Early in his press conference, he refers to ‘a sacred trust to all who have served’. At the end of his prepared remarks, he refers to the delivery of care and benefits (to veterans) and how he feels a ‘sacred duty’ to maintain that commitment.

Is it possible Obama’s thesaurus defines ‘sacred’ as… ‘put it off for 5 years’?
