POTUS: when I hear allegations of misconduct... I will not stand for it, not as commander-in-chief or as an American

PresObama says - If VA allegations prove to be true - "I will not tolerate it." Anyone manipulating VA records must be held accountable.

Øbama: They why didn't you do something when you first heard five years ago? Again 4 years ago. Again 2 years ago?

Only Barack Obama can turn a scandal about veterans dying into an issue all about "what he has done," "What I have done." So much disrespect
jimgeraghty @jimgeraghty 16s
Wait, isn't Obama citing the records that are allegedly falsified when he says they've reduced the backlog?

David Freddoso @freddoso 1m
Obama's making claims about having slashed the backlog "in half." How can he say that, given that the IG has said the data are unreliable?

I'm angry. I won't tolerate it. I'll get to the bottom of it. I'm furious (not Fast and Furious, though I've already indicated I'm mad about that, too). I'm really angry. Did I mention that I'm madder'n hell? Yep, really mad. (Is anyone still listening? I have a 3:00 tee time). Yessirreebob, I'm really irate.
