As long as you help cover Obama’s ass, you will be rewarded with a promotion. Check out David Cord, the corrupt Veterans Affairs administrator who told staff not to publicly disclose a deadly Legionnaire’s disease outbreak at a Pittsburgh VA hospital. David Cord, who was the deputy director of VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System since June 2012, will now be promoted to director of the Erie VA Medical Center within 60 days. Fox News covered this story, but no other media bothered. The legionnaires outbreak killed six veterans.

The VA disclosed the Legionnaires’ outbreak that killed at least six and sickened at least 16 others on Nov. 16, 2012 — two days after Cord told a VA spokesman not to alert the public about it, according to an internal email from the spokesman obtained as part of a Tribune-Review investigation.
On Nov. 14, 2012, two days before the VA Pittsburgh disclosed the outbreak, former spokesman David Cowgill wrote to an aide of VA Pittsburgh Chief of Staff Dr. Ali Sonel that Cord “does not want to be proactive and go to the media with a statement.”
