Trump supporters are now sensitive about eye jokes. To be clear, I never make fun of his lost eye. I only make fun of his other eye.
Old boss of mine had a glass eye...I always thought he just had a lazy eye until one day he showed up in the office with an eyepatch. "WTF happened?" Oh I just took it to the eyedoctor for a checkup. Then I got the rest of the story, so it wasn't weird the once a month it happened. The patch was weirder than the glass eye, by far.
Similar experience with an old friend of mine. Thought he just had a medical condition and didn’t ask. One day the patch came out and the story was told. The patch definitely attract much more attention than the fake eye. I can see why a politician that is wounded can get some attention and sympathy with it. But now that the VA report said he’s involved in a smear campaign of another vet that was in his unit who claimed sexual assault... it ain’t cool to make fun of but who give a damn about his eye patch over his bad character.
The woman claims she was sexually assaulted in a V.A. hospital Sorry, thinking about it, that is suspect. A) its a hospital B) its a V.A. hospital
Sexual assault is somehow not possible at the VA hospital? Whatever your reasons for suspect, what do you think of the orchestrated campaign to smear her? “An investigation from the independent government watchdog that oversees the Department of Veterans Affairs concluded Thursday that a Republican member of Congress was involved in an orchestrated campaign by V.A. Secretary Robert Wilkie to disparage the reputation of a female veteran who alleged she was sexually assaulted at a V.A. facility.”
Because its a ****ing hospital. Do you hear about sexual assault in hospitals? They are very safe places He told the V.A. director he thought she made frivolous claims in the past. Thars not a "campaign" V.A. hospitals are nothing more than hospitals
Do you hear about sexual assault in hospitals? Do you ever google your anecdotal definitive statements before you post them?
Actually i live in big ass city with a big ass world wide known medical center If someone were sexually assaulted in one of the big ass hospitals, it would be a big ass scandal
I'm sure it doesn't happen frequently but it's not impossible. https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/20...ed-of-sexually-assaulting-three-patients.html
@Dubious This the claim. A man pressed his body against hers the snack in the public cafeteria Deal with that anecdote. Authorities decided not to charge Stuff the abecdote up your arse
@pgabriel here's a lengthy article on sexual assault in hospitals, if you're interested. Over 2,400 documented cases. http://doctors.ajc.com/doctors_sex_abuse/?ecmp=doctorssexabuse_microsite_nav
Thanks i actually googled it but as you see in my later post her claim is nothing like the free spirited hands doctor
And the fact that the authorities decided not to charge is a subject of this audit and subsequent requests that the VA head should resign over his treatment of that case. https://www.axios.com/veterans-groups-va-wilkie-dismissal-7aef913d-2279-4e22-ac2e-9a03fc53302c.html
The claim is suspect. Sorry i don't need any of the participants Im sure youve been in a hospital cafeteria
I'm sure they are relatively very safe places. That doesn't mean there is no incident ever. If that's your reason for suspect, you should recheck it. Have I heard of it? Yes. It's in the IG report itself. Senior VA Officials’ Response to a Veteran’s Sexual Assault Allegations The sexual assault alleged by the veteran drew attention to the medical center’s long-standing reputation for having an inhospitable environment for women veterans. In his letter dated September 20, 2019, to the Secretary, Chairman Takano raised concerns about the environment at the medical center, noting that at least three individuals at the medical center who had interacted with the veteran did not take immediate action to intervene or assist her and that his staff has received reports that women veterans frequently experience sexual harassment and have been victims of sexual assault at VA medical facilities.95 A quick google also bring you to this: Newly Uncovered Cases of Patient Abuse at Laguna Honda | KQED I'm sure he claims innocent. The IG found that he's involved in a campaign to smear her reputation. I take the IG findings over his claims of innocent.
@bobrek It was investigated. Its an assault claim https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/16/us/politics/sexual-assault-va-hospitals.amp.html Her complaint was investigated by the V.A. Office of Inspector General at the direction of the Veterans Affairs secretary, Robert Wilkie, as well as law enforcement officials, who declined to bring any charges this week. @txtony The claim isnt against the hands free o.b.g.y.n.
