Where Is The Money Going???

I'm getting ready for work so don't have time to put together all of what I would like to but this is another example of what is happening while we have Two Conflict Theaters Raging!!

What was going on in your Area's VA Hospital/Clinic while we had Two Theaters of Conflict Raging?

Bonuses paid amid area VA troubles
Top N.C. hospital officials got $335,000

The VA paid bonuses of more than $335,000 to some of its top N.C. hospital managers during years when they received reports of poor patient care and suspicious deaths.


Regional VA managers in Durham also received bonuses during that time. And they received bonuses as the Asheville veterans hospital struggled with staffing shortages that investigators found caused poor care. The Asheville nursing home unit also had been ordered in 2004 to suspend admissions after a patient died.


Here's an Archive report:

Coverage of VA hospital issues

BONUSES FOR VA OFFICIALS
VA executives in North Carolina received bonuses as the system's hospitals in Salisbury and Asheville struggled with patient care problems. Here are details:
2006
Total paid: $56,000
Who got money: Regional VA director Daniel Hoffmann ($24,000); regional chief medical officer Dr. Mark Shelhorse ($19,000); Salisbury VA hospital director Donald Moore* ($9,000); associate director James Robinson ($4,000).
Problems: Federal investigators found a Salisbury VA nurse failed to make required visits to veterans housed in private nursing homes from October 2003 through June 2006. The nurse, who remains with the hospital, also filed inaccurate medical reports on the veterans, including listing one as "stable" 12 days after he died.
2005
Total paid: $79,500
SNIP There's more than this example


It was only abit over 4months ago the new congress came into being. While All that we've been hearing, about Walter Reed and the VA System, Remember who had control over the purse strings, the oversite, and the investigative ability!

Keep in mind the corruption cases, we know about, between some of the peoples representative's and defense contractors!

Anyone running for office, and the Congress receiving the Vetoed Suplemental Back, keeping the above and the rest not only in mind but Start Asking The hard Questions: "What the Hell was going on while Maimed Military Personal were being shipped into the system of Care that this country affords to give those who Actually do the Sacrificing?"!!!!!!!!!

I have quite a few related reports and discussions, and will be re-doing the above along with the added material as time permits.

I Want these reports and the Corruption reports Front and Center in All the National Debates and the State Debates!

I want to see them in Political Ads!

Here in North Carolina I want All running against Hayes, Dole, Burr, and the rest of the states reps. to be Asking The Questions!!

And I want to know where Every Penny is going in these Supplemetals that the Idiot says are For The Troops, Defense and VA!!!
