WTF is wrong with Obama. LOOK AT THIS!!! RIDICULOUS!
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/10/25/obama-calls-on-8000-healt_n_1031398.html


Obama Calls On 8,000 Health Clinic Jobs To Hire Iraq And Afghanistan Veterans
To help reduce the 11.7 veteran unemployment rate, the White House aims to get about 8,000 servicemen and servicewomen hired in the health sector over the next three years, President Barack Obama announced Tuesday.

Obama called on each of the nation's estimated 8,000 health clinics to hire at least one returning veteran from Afghanistan and Iraq, The Washington Post reported.

The president also aims to help military medics leverage their combat experience, by becoming physician assistants when they return. To facilitate the training, the administration said it will give priority grants to colleges and universities that offer such programs, according to Bloomberg.



These poor men and women have been fighting for YEARS and now the President has the gall to try and make them work more!!!!!

He obviously hates the 99 %
He obviously hates the soldiers

He wants them to be tired and overworked!!!

OUTRAGE!!!!!

28. Judging by the unrecs
A number of folks don't quite "get it" here and are doing everything in their power to make sure that they never will.

7. The outrage is that these vets are too darn lazy to get a job!
Because as we all know, if you're unemployed, it's your own fault!

8. I love how we try to alienate our party members.
It's a wonder we ever get anyone elected.

14. That is a very dishonest attack
No one said they were alienated by providing jobs to veterans.

23. Don't attack the left and then try to hide behind vets to defend your baseless attack
You know as well as I do that the comments you made in the OP had nothing to do with vets or jobs.

24. Attack the left? By pointing out how silly and bent out of shape people get over the President?
Edited on Tue Oct-25-11 06:49 PM by DFab420
The man could cure non-hodgkin lymphoma and people here would be upset he didn't focus on breast cancer during breast cancer awareness month....

25. You did not point out anything, you just wrote a load of crap.
If you had pointed anything out you would have been able to easily respond to my other post when I asked you to give me an example of anyone on the left being outraged about health care jobs for veterans.

Don't worry I was not offended by your "satire", I just think real satire has to have some basis in reality to be effective or funny. If you are just pulling satire out of your ass then you should not call it satire because it comes off as very obnoxious and unfunny.

11. Who has expressed outrage at this?
I certainly have not heard anyone on the left express outrage about this. I think virtually everyone on the left would support this, but most of us would also argue that it does not go nearly far enough. 8,000 jobs is a miniscule number in a nation of 300 million people, especially when we are talking a three year period.

29. The angst in this thread is absolutely delicious
People who call this president and his supporters every name under the sun and accuse him of every sinister motive in existence are simply outraged with a capital O by your OP poking fun at their perpetual outrage.

Well done.

15. We should start building government hospitals
And have GI's work to build it, and run it when it opens. One week of occupying Iraq should cover the cost of building a few of them, and the labor costs. Make it a free hospital for vets, and let the public use it along with a public option. We need state of the art facilities and this would bring a lot of jobs.
