It's a nice theory, but I'm afraid the timeline is all wrong. They announced April 30, 2008 that the clinic would move (my second link in the prior post) and one year later, the clinic was open in North Bend. The story says "Contractors started working on the 10,000-square-foot clinic in late August." That would be August 2008. I'll take your word for it that the move was a bad idea, and that Bandon was a better place for the clinic. But it was clearly well underway before Obama became president. barfo
Interesting. The just let us think our Advocate had been successful to whole time. Even the people that worked there. Weird. I see that 2008 announcement, I just don't know where it was announced, Jolene Guzman isn't the name of the lady that runs the paper in Bandon. I see nothing in the Bandon paper about the VA closing after the 2007 articles. Some even went down there for the appointment to find it closed. I suppose that let us think our Advocate had indeed fixed the issue. Obama didn't fix it. Probably counted it as a shovel ready success.
How come U.S. veterans fight socialism in wars, then retire and whine like victims when they don't get enough socialist benefits? Might it be cause-and-effect? On a related note, here's a Republican Washington state legislator caught in many lies about what he did in the military. He's trying to lie his way out of his lies. New article. http://www.seattletimes.com/seattle...-records-fail-to-back-state-lawmakers-claims/
Is taking care of Vets socialist in your mind? Not mine. I would say taking care of non vets is socialist, taking care of Vets is reasonably fair or just. If you want, I can tell you tales about my campaign medals and other detail that got me rated a class three vet. However, almost none of it shows up in a service record like the DD214. Most campaign medals are created long after the campaign, and most of the time long after the vet has been discharged. They do not go back and update service records, issue new DD214s and all, but that does not mean there are not entitled to the award.
I would be very interested to hear those tales. It was an important time for the country, so we need to do whatever we can to preserve the oral history of the Confederacy. barfo
Oh well, that era would be about my GGGrandfather's time in the British Navy. Interesting stuff about a Frigate and the missions involved during a two year deployments in a circuit around the Atlantic. I don't believe I had any American ancestors yet, at that time.
yeah...he will recover next week by the way, what happened? Where has Mags been? Obviously I missed something...
