It's hard to say, even with
decades of military history, whether or not the boys have a greater and natural streak of rebellion in them which exceeds that of us girls. Who really knows? But I can say to you for sure, that the women Vets are by far, really, really, really, & REALLY caught up in the whole ritual of Blind Obedience after leaving the armed services. Even when I come across it right now, it still catches me off guard and I am the inquisitive type who wants to put that under a microscope and ask the obvious question: Why is this so ?? The reality is, that this whole Blind-Obedience thing that women Vets do, may very well be a contributing factor to the fraud, corruption, incompetence, and malpractice that the VA so openly touts in our faces, and has an unintended outcome of giving them the confidence they need to do any old kind of dysfunctional Hocus-Pocus right out in the open without fear of Vet retalliation, or (HELLO!) even being found out! This raises the question as to whether or not we, as the unique gender-figures that we are, ought to be looking in the mirror and going "H-m-m-m!" So let's get real for a minute. What's up with the Obedience Crap?? This is a fair question to know. This sounds to me like the proverbial psycho-carryover by on-duty extremists who are unable to find the functional on & off switch which makes that all-important distinction between active duty, and ....D-U-H ! HELLO !! You are free now......! Incredibly, we are trained to eat glass and enjoy it in the face of an enemy in pursuit. But let us put on a pair of Civies and stick us in a VA Lobby, and let the yellow streak grow up the middle of our backs like a skunk let loose in a road-painting truck!! G-E-E-E-E-Z !!!!! What is it about dummies in the agencies that none of us understands ?? The agencies have never been the Commander-In-Chief to us, so where is it that Blind Obedience fits into this mix? Inquiring Vet-Minds want to know. I just don't get it. The VA is a place of corruption, sabotage, subversion, malpractice, fools running amuck, foreign immigrants who could give a rats ass about YOU, people who cannot even spell the word M-i-l-u-t-e-r-r-y, and Wanna-Be's who try to look important but really aren't !! In short, the VA is a communist Zoo disguised as a medical facility. What's to be "obedient" for ?? Consider the fact that while you were in dress Greens and holding that all-important Security Clearance that you nearly had to sell your own mother for to get by NSA, your very identity, your S-number, your rank, your MOS, and your very duty assignment could be deemed "classified" and not even the best efforts of Moscow could shake it loose for the availability of knowing. But holy-tamoly, upon release of the service, just let yourself walk into a VA emergency room full of "trainees" from the nearby MEDICAL SCHOOL who haven't even graduated with a medical degree yet; or haven't gone through a single probing background check for criminal history; let alone a DMV check to verify their identity;--- and now all of us women Vets turn into the CBS networks newest TV reality show called "The Wimp Factor" !! Wow --- what a stunning transition. If we are to survive this Monkey Squad system that they have set up for us, then it's time to pull your gumption and techniques of enemy resistance out of the attic duffel bag, and start using it as you walk the halls of the VA. It behooves our life expectancy rates as the historical and modern day treasures that we are, to polish off the combat shin-highs and remind this crapbag of an agency how well they fit where the sun doesn't shine in a military minute, whenever we are on enemy reconnaissance as we travel the halls of landmines, booby-traps, and malpractice grenades of the VA Hospitals and agencies. It's dangerous out there, in case none of you have noticed, and the only way to survive this VA is to break out the greasepaint and go camoflage. Enough already with the obedience foolishness inside this VA rendition of Keystone-Cops. Question, interrogate, evaluate, and refuse this pile of crap called the VA if you see an eminent threat heading your way. Your days of blind obedience are now over, and let us together pledge from this day on, no more displays of Private Benjamin by us at the VA facilities.
