VA secretary: Disney doesn't measure wait times, so why should VA?

Veterans Affairs Secretary Robert McDonald on Monday compared the length of time veterans wait to receive health care at the VA to the length of time people wait for rides at Disneyland, and said his agency shouldn't use wait times as a measure of success because Disney doesn't either.
 
"When you got to Disney, do they measure the number of hours you wait in line? Or what's important? What's important is, what's your satisfaction with the experience?" McDonald said Monday during a Christian Science Monitor breakfast with reporters. "And what I would like to move to, eventually, is that kind of measure."
not many people died while waiting to go on space mountain.  there is a difference between a ride
and having a need to see a doctor, because of a medical condition.   There should be no bonus structure for the VA,
if they can't see to patients in a timely manner.  Rigging the stats, by not scheduling patients, so wait times aren't
obvious sucks, and they should be given jail time for cooking the books.

Great News for Tony and Travellin Dave:

'Fixer Upper' fans are going crazy over Joanna's announcement

WACO, Texas – If you’re a fan of the HGTV show ‘Fixer Upper’ then you already know Joanna Gaines love for designs on TV.

The problem is homeowners have to live in the Waco, Texas area in order to be considered for a home makeover – until now.

“With season 3 over, and a ways to go until season 4, I thought it would be fun to host a monthly giveaway where I can redesign a living room or bedroom in your home from right here in Waco, TX!” Gaines posted.
Lol, the travelin' man, as well.
::)
I figgered you would like to have Joanna "redesign" your bedroom at the White Whale Inn.
I do like the crown of her molding.
Indeed, she could do me a little ship lap as well.
It would be the guest bedroom, mine is just fine.
Yeah, I don't think the skinny lap would be appropriate for you.
Probably right... :-[

I liked them...still have a few stragglers I think in manageable sizes.  Only ones left out on the market are those 808 (6.0 x 60) logs.

Dumb ass doesn't know the VA and doesn't know Disney either.  Disney constantly measures it's wait times and publishes them on display boards and now APPs for people to know what they are in for.  Bet they don't offer Fast Passes for the VA either!

Equal measure of both. Likely his chief qualification for the job was being the best Obummer ass-kisser at the time.
