SHS: Most Americans hate Washington because of the way Dr. Ronny is being treated

[Miles Archer]

“Look, the president kind of left that up to Dr. Jackson to make that determination,” Sanders said. “At this point as the president said yesterday he is a great man. He hates to see him go through this process. It’s part of the reason I think most Americans hate Washington. Washington has become so broken that they focus so much on destroying people they aren’t even talking about his qualifications to run the V.A.. they’re talking about personal character assassination.”

Sanders neglected to note the solid week of commentary questioning Jackson’s fitness for the position to lead the VA.

“We’ve seen it time and time again,” she claimed. “And I think that we really need to look at the way the process is handled. They did this with Director [Mike] Pompeo. Somebody, who is incredibly qualified, should have been moved forward much quicker and frankly with a lot more bipartisan support. You have one of the most uniquely qualified individuals that’s coming in to take on the role of Secretary of State. Somebody who they unanimously supported in previous positions and they play political games.”

“I think you have to look back at how history has operated in the past,” Sanders said. “You had votes for people like Sen. John Kerry. When you have people that are voting for John Kerry both Republicans and Democrats yet they question Mike Pompeo there is something broken in the system. That this isn’t just about President Trump but it is about political politics of the worst kind.”

1. One Of Their Own Challenged Pompeo....

Rand Paul.

2. "Plus...he medicates all of us so....."

Poor dears. I remember ten times this for President Obama...and it was real, and undeserving. The rw thinks they own this country and can change the rules or denigrate them when it suits them. Ala..the supreme court pick...and nominations.

3. Not me. I hate Washington because she and Trump are there.

4. Huckster-Slanders is accidentally right about what many of us hate about Washington...

We DO hate how Dr. Ronny is being treated:

We hate that he was offered a job for which he is unqualified.
We hate that he was offered the job without proper vetting.
We hate that he was offered the job because he cultivated a patronage relationship with Trump.
We hate that he kept his last job despite behaving inappropriately/unethically.

And we hate that those qualities are the rule rather than an exception in the Trump administration.

8. I wonder....

Was being named to head the VA the payback for faking DT's medical report?

5. I just hate what her face projects.

I don't find her ugly physically, to be frank, but her expressions, her words, her smug is ugly as sin.

[get the red out]

12. This!

Her personality shows through I believe.

6. If I hear one more reporter or Anchor on MSNBC say it was only Ambien

he was giving out, It wasn't Opioids, as if people don't get addicted to Ambien ,as well as get addicted to the other medication he was giving out Provigil.

I work in Addiction - People talk about Opioids all the time - Many of my patients are not only addicted to Opioids. They abuse multiple substances.

I'm sorry, a doctor giving out Ambien and Provigil willy nilly- needs to be looked at.

7. How do you know what most Americans think, Sarah?

Because I think what most Americans really hate is an administration that can't be bothered to do even the most rudimentary elements of its job in vetting the background of its nominees to find out whether or not those nominees are qualified for the job, or are stinking drunks, or who don't work and play well with others. That's a colossal waste of time and money because your administration is too bone lazy to to any actual work.

9. Nope.

[leftyladyfrommo]

10. Most Americans probably don't have any idea who he is

or that he has even been nominated for something.

[flotsam]

11. Yeah-let's compare how Pompeo and Kerry were treated

Kerry, holder of the Silver Star and multiple purple hearts won in combat had books written stating he was unfit for command while Pompeo used stolen valor to enhance his resume and now that he has been exposed all you hear are republican crickets...So Fuck off Fester-face!

13. I love Kathy Bates, but Huckleberry would have been perfect in "Misery."

[Proud Liberal Dem]

14. "How could you kill Misery?!!!"

I could see it.
