Mr. Ramirez’s cartoons cut to the heart of an issue like no others…

 

The White House vowed to withdraw all U.S. troops from Afghanistan by year's end. That's if they agree to leave. If given the choice between surviving Taliban attacks in the Afghan mountains and surviving VA care when they get home, they like their chances in the mountains.     

President Obama explained he didn't know about the VA hospital scandal until he heard about it from reporters Monday. That's pretty much the pattern. President Obama doesn't hold press conferences to make news, he holds press conferences to find out what's in the news.   Argus Hamilton
