I think long term it is a great method to do.

This veteran just sort of got ignored for a while.

I mean, all you can say is you got lucky.

we want to be sure that we provide the resources to take care of our veterans. And I can tell you the America people want their veterans taken care of.

I think you are going to be a great secretary.

If this was your dad there and would you be happy with the explanation you just gave of his death? And secondly, would you accept that?

I mean, you would have lost both limbs where I was if you had tried to convince a staff a member where I am, or me when I was a staff member.

if you ask someone at the VA who they work for they would say the VA, and the right answer was I work for the veteran

There should be some accountability somewhere.

Are you saying then it is leadership?

What would be the reason for a veteran to, I mean here is a veteran, I see them all the time, sitting at home and I have got to go back and tell them that your chart just sat on somebody's desk for 200 days waiting for a signature.

And I heard you say, and we heard this through numbing hours of testimony this year with the VA, is that it is not a money issue.
