Department of Veterans Affairs employees destroyed veterans’ medical records to cancel backlogged exam requests [AUDIO]

Employees of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) destroyed veterans’ medical files in a systematic attempt to eliminate backlogged veteran medical exam requests, a former VA employee told The Daily Caller.

Audio of an internal VA meeting obtained by TheDC confirms that VA officials in Los Angeles intentionally canceled backlogged patient exam requests.

I hate liberals. Liberalism is a disease that causes severe brain damage after it tries to suck knowledge and history out of yours.

What an exemplary way to treat those that served their country. <sarcasm>

I hate people who take government money, but the fine folks in uniform have actually EARNED their benefits from taxpayers. ::USA::

This is just disgusting. Heads should roll, but nothing will happen.

The VA has always been a preview of what government medicine would look like if ever rolled out to the general population.

It's worse than that though...it's the incompetence and attitude of the DMV thrown in for good measure as well!!!   ::pullhair::   ::laserkill::
