Calm yourself Patrick such displays of anger are unseemly.

"...yet you continue to lie about what my position is..." I haven't made any assertion regarding your position. Your position is an opinion to which you are entitled.

So you admit that the federal government controls healthcare within the VA system, that is progress for you.

Is it your contention that the federal government does not control Medicare, Medicaid and the VA? If the federal government removes funding for Medicare, Medicaid and VA will those programs continue to exist? Since you are unlikely to answer this direct question the answer is no. So contrary to your opinion the federal government does control through funding, administration and management those entitlement programs to which it funds, administers and manages.

Was your nickname EZ in college?

Please call me a liar and repeat your opinion again, I find it laughable, tiresome and repetitive but laughable.
