After dragging on and on, Eric Shinseki has resigned as Obama VA Secretary and has been dishonorably discharged. Shinseki is called a war hero by many people (kind of like John McCain), but he was just a POS who didn’t care at all about the veterans. Republicans and desperate Democrats seeking re-election have called for Shinseki to resign, and he refused to for weeks. Today was finally the breaking point when he and Jay Carney got off the sinking Obama ship.

Pres Obama said he agreed Shinseki would be a "distraction" if he stayed in the job – and so accepted his resignation with reget.
