Eric Shinseki: “This budget request is VA's plan for meeting our obligation to all veterans of all generations.”

I expect our employees to provide the highest quality, safest care we can provide.

Somehow other terms make it sound like it is a condition. This is a crime and we ought to look at it that way.

The President believes in Veterans and their families, believes in providing them the care and benefits they've earned.

Any allegation, any adverse incident like this makes me--makes me mad as hell.
