General Shinseki resigned because of the press. It carried public pressure for no valid reason, so he left because he didn't want to be a distraction. 

The USA Press knew exactly what they were doing and they drove a qualified man out of office.

THE PROBLEM IS NOT SOLVED BECAUSE HE LEFT!

Now what is the press going to harp on to correct the problem? Oh, wait. The backlog is now asking members to attend to their needs through private and state hospitals to reduce the backlog. That's right. That occurred under Secretary Shinseki, so all is taken care of and the problem is solved.

It must be an awesome power to actually cause greater problems for the country and a power to be so very proud of.

I suppose if a national press can drive a country into an illegal and immoral war, it can do anything.

It is more than ironic the national press never listened to General Shinseki in both his roles in the military in regard to Iraq and now when there was covert activity within the VA system.

Amazing. It isn't about General Shinseki's feelings, it is about a lousy national press that doesn't LISTEN and only launches propaganda whenever it works to it's power structure to pull strings for the purpose of directing politics. THAT is what this is about. 

General Shinseki is not the issue, the power of the national press to push and pull the people this country in wrongful directions is the issue. He should still be at the VA as he has the most information about the circumstances facing veterans. He has made incredible changes to increase the profile for veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.

The length of issues facing this country that are manipulated by a press anchored in 'their power' rather than 'the truth' is astounding. This is just another example of how the country is disaffected by a national press directing the attention of a nation.

I am still waiting to hear how compromising an entire Olympics and the safety of millions of people were considered fair play for the press to promote Romney over Obama. It is so obvious the press pushed a power play button, Romney - Olympics - National Security - Presidential Election. The power play is all to obvious.

The really unfortunate aspect to the national press is that the people suffer because of it. The condition of this nation is hideous compared to the wealth of Wall Street. Now, the VA has lost the best advocate it ever had. 

General Shinseki needs to remain involved and public. He needs to continue to speak for those underserved and to a nation that needs his expertise and insight.
