VA secretary just compared hospital to Disneyland

 
If you truly want the VA Hospitals to run smoothly,
hire a military grunt to be in charge!
Someone the likes of me comes to mind?
VA Secretary Bob McDonald, 85 to 95% of the visitors to the Disney theme parks
are families with young children on vacation and well 'capable' and 'use to' waiting
for an enjoyable ride or two during their vacation.
95% of the veterans, while not on a vacation or a picnic,
are waiting for you and your staff to do your jobs.


Jobs that you are well pay to do I might add,
and are old and or crippled one way or another
from wars that allowed you,
VA Secretary Bob McDonald,
the freedom to poke fun at,
your "Heroes!"
VA Secretary Bob McDonald
needs to find another job,

"Washing bedpans comes to mind!"

VA secretary just compared hospital wait times to Disneyland lines
by: Katie Link, Newsy Updated: May 23, 2016
McDonald took over as secretary for the department after a 2014 investigation revealed veterans were dying while waiting months to receive care at VA hospitals.

But more recent reports indicate wait times are still an issue.

In April,

the Government Accountability Office released a report indicating nearly half of surveyed veterans seeking medical care were forced to wait more than 30 days for treatment.


Disney Ride Wait Times Compared To VA Wait Times
May 24, 2016 by Benjamin Krause —10 Comments


VA Secretary Bob McDonald was idiotically caught with his shoe in his mouth when he conflated the VA wait times were veterans died to Disney’s ride wait times.

Most people would never think these two issues could ever be compared to each other in any manner, but Secretary Bob thinks the wait list should not be discussed just like wait times at Disney rides are not discussed in the press.

VA SECRETARY ON WAIT TIMES

Here is what CNN cited concerning Bob’s idiotic statement:

“When you go to Disney, do they measure the number of hours you wait in line?

Or what’s important?”

McDonald told reporters at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast in Washington.

“What’s important is what’s your satisfaction with the experience?”

Somehow, nonsense like Disney amusement rides are now the standard by which American should be informed about veterans dying while waiting for health care – never talk about it.

I do not have a lot to say about this since it would be an insult to my intellect to burn time on the subject.

Disney ride wait times are not the same as wait times for sick and dying veterans to see a doctor.

Apparent Secretary Bob missed the memo… or he screwed up the math.

Veteran's affairs
Instead, Secretary Bob said that
“satisfaction with the experience”
is what is
“important.”
Of course, how can they adequately measure the satisfaction of dead veterans who died waiting for health care?

Since when did we become such a country of ninnies, anyway?

Somehow if we feel good about being defiled that is sufficient to justify ignoring the violation?

If we do not turn this country around soon, I think it is time we all start to consider moving somewhere that takes the plight of its citizens more seriously than Mickey Mouse.

We live in central Florida.

Florida Tropical Paradise
Pet dinner at the pond?
We live in central Florida.

Florida is a Tropical Peninsula close to the Equator, hot and rainy.

Florida is and has been a home to tropical plants, birds, animals and reptiles millions of years before humans.

This Lakefront subdivision means that in Florida it is next to a home of Alligators among many other things.

This lake has a sign
"No Swimming Dangerous Wildlife!"

What is "COOL?"


Country-of-origin labeling (COOL) for beef, pork, and chicken.

House Votes to Repeal Country-of-Origin Labeling for Meat
 

Remember my past postings?


This is just a few of what has been happening and now will continue to happen because "You" have not been paying attention to "Your" Federal and State Congress!

The House of Representatives just voted 300-131 to remove "Country of origin labeling" known as (COOL) on chicken, pork and beef sold in the US.

Is China still selling bad pet food?

Thursday, March 29, 2012


YES!


As seen on 'twitter' yesterday.

By Lydia Zuraw | June 11, 2015

The House of Representatives has voted to repeal country-of-origin labeling (COOL) for beef, pork, and chicken.

Texas Republican Rep. Michael Conaway’s Country of Origin Labeling Amendments Act of 2015 passed late Wednesday night by a 300-131 vote.

Conaway introduced the bill on May 18 — the same day the World Trade Organization rejected a U.S. appeal of its decision that COOL unfairly discriminates against meat imports and gives the advantage to domestic meat products.


COOL, which went into effect for meat in 2013, require that packaging indicate the country, or countries, where animals were born, raised and slaughtered.

Supporters of repeal don’t want the U.S. subjected to the $3.6 billion in potential retaliatory tariffs sought by Canada and Mexico.

They also argue that the rule has already burdened the U.S. meat industry.

House Democrats who spoke on the floor in support of the bill included Reps. Costa, Scott, Sanford Bishop (D-GA), Mike Thompson (D-CA), Henry Cuellar (D-TX) and Rep. Kurt Schrader (D-OR) who said that, “COOL may have been well-intended, but we’ve lost four times at the WTO … let’s repeal it, let’s move on.”


I know "We do not care about our life, health, family, or country!"

Let us just keep voting these bums back in to office?

P.S.

Remember, Bernie Sanders has been in an office of government for 35 years and today he is demanding that congress, of which he is a member, pass laws?

35 years and he did not know that he should be one of those that he is now demanding to past a law, any law?


Please think and vote?

Panther killed in southwest Florida

Panther killed in southwest Florida


THE ASSOCIATED PRESS October 8, 2015

Officials say a Florida panther was killed by a vehicle on a southwest Florida road.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission reports that the 3-year-old female was found Thursday after being hit by a vehicle on a stretch of the Tamiami Trail

that runs through Collier-Seminole State Park.

The remains will be taken to a Gainesville facility for a necropsy.

This is the 31st Florida panther killed this year, the 22nd by a vehicle strike.

Florida set a record last year with 25 road kills and 33 overall deaths.

Florida panthers once roamed the entire southeastern U.S., but only around 180 remain in the wild.


I believe that just like the Black Bear Population, the 180 is only a guess!

There could be a few more, just like with the Florida Black Bear Population, more than likely there are a lot less!

And soon, too soon, there will be none of each!

Because the Ranchers in South Florida hate the Florida Panther and realtors want to build in the,

both bears and panthers,

sanctuary!

How did the other 9 panthers die this years?

and

How did the other 8 panthers die last year?

Also notice, Florida panthers once roamed the entire southeastern U.S.

But only around 180 remain in the wild.

Not my works but theirs!

So, how many are still in Florida?

on our wild life in Florida you all know why!

Money hungry, greedy, land grabbers and their officials in the land of the wildlife.

Dog attacks Bear, Bear Wins


Dog and lights Spooked the bear
Dog attacks Bear, Bear Wins

Remember, the state of Florida has been selling the most desired and necessary food of the Black Bear!

The Saw Palmetto Berry for big profits for years and there is little if any left!


If you listen close to the interview you will hear four very important things, not counting their loss of their food, that are in the bears favor?

(1)- In the interview

Mr. Bryant stated to the WFTV Reported, the channel that we were watching this morning, that he had burses but it did not go through his clothing?

Now he said that the bear knocked him down and tearing his clothing?

I wonder, is Mr. Bryant one of the 2,000 plus, hunters geared up to shoot bears in a few days?

(2)- This trailer park is still putting trash out at night instead of the morning.

(3)- The dog attacked the bear while the bear was just looking for food.

(4)- The trailer 'sensor controlled lights' came on at the end of the animals fighting when the men stepped out the door!

Which, the man admits, spooked the bear.

The bear could have easily have also killed the man however, it just knocked him down on the way out of the area.

Florida Black Bears do not Kill Humans?


Wildlife officials are trying to trap a bear that attacked and killed a family's dog in Orange City late Monday night.

Alan Bryant said that after the bear killed his dog, it went after him.

Bryant said the bear swung at him, knocking him down and tearing his clothes.

In the interview Mr. Bryant stated to the WFTV Reported that he had burses but it did not go through his clothing?

Now he said that the bear knocked him down and tearing his clothing?

Just like the last time when the dogs attacked a bears cub, the bear will be the loser.

Staber said it was trash day and the bear got into the neighbor’s trash can. He dragged it to the side of her home and started rummaging through the trash.
