My fear?? She will back the unions & bureaucrats and not bust them.

I think it will take at least two rotations before the battle with the VA has a solution that actually helps Vets..

This first rotation will be just for grandstanding, with lots of yelling & screaming in front of some committee..

Your idea has merit! With this line-up the Triage Questionnaire would look something like this: "Can you breathe? If 'yes', then suck it up."

I was thinking a can of pears.

I don't like the cherry pieces in the fruit cocktail.

Besides, we have enough of a fruit cocktail running the whole country as it sits currently. Doesn't matter who takes over, it will be a yes man. Everyone knows, with this administration, you either get in line............


Or your sent to the back of the line.
