'Spare us': Veteran uses Obama's own words to pummel White House over VA scandal

Earlier today, Barack Obama held a presser about the VA scandal, where he tried to muster up “anger” over the appalling mistreatment of our veterans and vowed a thorough investigation into any wrongdoing. Needless to say, citizens weren’t all that reassured by Obama’s claims that he’s committed to veterans and their families:

"Taking care of veterans and their families has become one of the causes of my presidency." – Pres. Obama

Yeah, Mr. President? Because you could’ve fooled us.

It says that Barack Obama was — and is — totally full of it.

Yep:

Obama: 'It is important that our veterans not become another political football.'

POTUS says veterans should not become a "political football" and Dems and GOP should "work together" on their behalf.

President Hope-and-Change doesn’t seem all that interested in changing much of anything.

Tweeter @FirstTeamTommy, himself a veteran, decided it was time for a history lesson.

Bringing @BarackObama's words back to haunt him, tweet by tweet right now—>>@FirstTeamTommy #VAScandal

Who better to indict the Obama machine for its shamelessness and lies than the Obama machine itself?
