VA Hasn't “Fired” Anyone!

[longknife]

Remember the VA director promising to clean up the VA and fire those responsible for the shoddy treatment of vets? He was going to clean house. And then, he announced that 60 had been fired. That was “adjusted” - a favorite Obama administration bugagoo – to thirteen.


Well, it appears that the truth is – NOBODY has been fired! Nada. Zilch. Zip.


The following is just one of dozens of article citing this @

And Congress still hasn't got off its butt to pass H.R. 1994 To amend title 38, United States Code, to provide for the removal or demotion of ...

... employees of the Department of Veterans Affairs based on performance or misconduct, and for other purposes. Which can be found @ To amend title 38 United States Code to provide for the removal or demotion of employees of the Department of Veterans Affairs based on performance or misconduct and for other purposes. H.R. 1994 - GovTrack.us showing that it's still sitting in some committee somewhere.


Pissed? Contact your Congressmen/women!

Merit Systems Protection Board; We’re not coddling poorly performing federal employees



Of course this is what they're going to claim. But this is outrageous!



MSPB issued a statement about VA employees who they saved from firing by claiming, “VA employees have always been poor performers, so the agency shouldn’t expect better.”



Are you kidding me? The story has links to back it up @ Merit Systems Protection Board; We’re not coddling poorly performing federal employees

Whats the matter?

It is only veterans that are dying waiting for their medical treatment, you know, Hillary's 'shit kickers' and 'little people'.
