A Question...

...from the good folks over at QandO: Which is It?

If in fact the left wants to talk about government run health care and how wonderful it is, well, it’s the best thing since sliced bread:
The Best Care Anywhere

Ten years ago, veterans hospitals were dangerous, dirty, and scandal-ridden. Today, they’re producing the highest quality care in the country. Their turnaround points the way toward solving America’s health-care crisis.

However, when it is politically advantageous to slam the present administration, well not so much:

They are evidence not of a few tragic isolated problems, but of systemic neglect that has nearly crippled the U.S. veterans’ health system ...

So?

Which is it?

And if it is the latter, why should we trust the government to run anything like health care?


My own take would be that the positive view of the VA hospitals was merely a bit of journalistic opportunism...the press equivalent of "youthful hi-jinks!"

Please, don't take it seriously.
