Watching Boston news on NBC this morning and I'm sure the announcer said Trump was going to appoint Sarah Palin as Secretary for Veterans Affairs.
Does he really think that little of vets? I'll have to keep up with 'merican news to see this play out.

Actually Don, she might do a good job. As a governor she was well liked and fairly efficient on Alaskas focal matters. The least she can do is bumble things and get fired like what Bill Clinton was forced to do with mrs. Elders after she was appointed surgeon general.

Speakers nog of surgeon general I'd think that would have been better suited for Ben Carson.

Anyhow. That whole team has 4 years to prove itself, or maybe less...


In our last Conservative government, the very unpopular Minister if Veterans Affairs started closing many of the Veteran service offices in smaller communities. Bad move...the Legion in Sydney Cape Breton got all fired up and started organizing national protests ...even traveling to Ottawa. During our federal election last year they launched an 'Anything but Conservative' campaign. All 30 seats in the Atlantic region went Liberal and nationally the Conservatives were trounced. Sarah better be careful down there.
