		<description><![CDATA[I have a few email buddies who&#039;d appreciate EMD.


They actually loath them and I&#039;m there with them when I read of the parasitic behaviour and outright anti-British attitudes.


Read any Andrew Gilligan article in the Telegraph (he&#039;s good) and then read the often up to 2/3000 comments and that tells you that we are far from being alone.


It&#039;s not just Cameron who refuses to get it, it&#039;s the whole bloody lot and even Sky, marginally better than el-Beeb is stuffed to the gunnels with political correctness.


There&#039;s a huge haul ahead but Ukip&#039;s triumph  last week and Farage&#039;s  masterful destruction of the loathsome Clegg in the two debates was sheer joy.


This is far from over but a glimmer of Churchills sun lit uplands is hoving into view.


I am, for once optimistic.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is BS,  Both Shinseki and the President have know about the VA problems for some time.  The President admitted today he knew about the VA problems before he was President.  So why didn&#039;t he fix it when he became President.  Also both of them have known about the More that 62,000 Homeless American Veterans which is a discrase on the United States. Maybe Obama should resign like Shinseki.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chris Matthews was nearly standing on his desk screaming at his guests last night - famous uber hyper right wing fascists Joan &quot;Patty Hearst&quot; Walsh and Senator Sherrod Brown - because they quibbled with Chris that perhaps throwing Shinseki on the fire in order to shield his boss (Chris&#039;s boss) from criticism wouldn&#039;t actually fix everything what&#039;s wrong with the VA.  

No I think the rig is in. Fire Shinseki, perhaps even indict him criminally. And Obama&#039;s media will blithely wander off as if it&#039;s all been made magically perfect. 

BTW you gotta love the solution that&#039;s being floated - can&#039;t go to a VA facility? No worries, go to any private hospital you like, for free. Someone else will pay for that.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[LOL, I thought of another reason.  Ego.

The mans ego is so damn big, that to throw shinseki under the bus would be too admit he made a mistake.  This is HIS appointee.  Forget the war, which is something the cowardly bully never understood or cared about;  health care is his big thing, and the VA is not even a new service.  If he can&#039;t manage to even keep an established, somewhat corrupt service running; doing a form of socialism which the communist in him lives and breathes for, then he is one of the most wretched leaders the world has seen.


Just a thought.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is weird.  

The republican speaker of the house is supporting his political enemy in a moment of incredible vulnerability.  And That enemy, President Obama, is a man with a reputation for zero personal loyalty so much so that a phrase was created to describe his behavior, &quot;throwing people under the bus&quot;.  Yet he is dangerously backing an incredibly toxic lackey who probably should be thrown under the bus for ethical reasons even aside from practical ones.

Something is very weird here.  There is an angle we are not getting which is open to exploitation.   Someone cut a deal, shinseki is more important than we realize.    Perhaps he represents a third party, ie unions, an important backer, something else?   Maybe this appointee is the one person he loyal to, because of ideology?  Perhaps shinseki is doing something the President finds indispensable?
