How the GOP hijacked the Congress

[formercia]

In January 1997, "Jim" Nicholson, whom George W. Bush made his U.S. Ambassador the Holy See, was elected Chairman of the Republican National Committee . . . In his first year as Chairman, he broke all party records for fundraising, helping to win the stunning series of 1997 election victories now known as the Republican "Clean Sweep". . . Under Nicholson, the Republican Party won the Presidency, the Congress, a majority of Governorships, and state legislatures, a feat not done by Republicans in nearly fifty years.
In 1999, Nicholson was honored by induction as a Knight in the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. . .

1. Now he's the VA Director, exercising his compassion on the Veterans.

His greatest contribution has been telling us to wear our medals on Veterans Day. Heal thyselves & wear your decorations.

2. A real cheapskate when it comes to Veterans

I never go to the VA anymore. Too many people go in and never come out.I wonder what the troublemaker survival rate is in the VA system.
