VA secretary facing bipartisan firestorm over Disney comments | Fox News

Veterans Affairs Secretary Robert McDonald said that waiting for VA healthcare is like waiting in lines for rides at Disney theme parks. Really, Mr. Secretary? Veterans have died while waiting for VA healthcare, and the problem got worse because VA used secret waiting lists and fraudulent records to cover up the problem rather than fixing it, while VA managers got fat bonus checks. How many people died because they had to wait too long in a Disneyland ride line? As a disabled veteran, with veteran friends who suffer because of long wait times for VA healthcare for service-related medical problems, I am beyond merely offended.
