Now THAT’S Leadership! – Gen. Eric Shinseki To Be Named as Head of the VA

Posted By JM Bell on December 7, 2008

Brilliant! Inspired! Bold!

From Crooks and Liars:

According to the Washington Post, Gen. Eric Shinseki will be named as Barack Obama’s selection to head the Department of Veterans Affairs. A little payback perhaps for the treatment of Shinseki by the Bush administration for firing Shinseki for this? Or a reward for his honesty by Obama?

    I would like to say that I think General Shinseki will be a breath of fresh air to the VA – Do you have any idea how I could contact him directly, e.g. email or web page. I have been looking but have not found anything – not even an address. I am also a disabled vet and contractor to the VA. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Sorry, me and Generals don’t often pal around together. New government directories will be printed right after the first of the year and should make getting word to him easier.

    Good luck.
