This is how far Barry Hussein's rodents have burrowed into the US Military....he's fired dozens of good Generals, refused to send help to Ambassador Stevens, imposed impossible ROEs in Afghanistan, chickened out on Syria, abandoned the Iraqis, has given up on trying to stop Iran from building nukes, fostered lawsuits from female and queer GIs, made sure the sequestration hit the Pentagon the hardest, and destroyed morale in every way possible. And now he's banned Christmas from VA hospitals.
AUGUSTA, Ga. (CBS Atlanta) – An Augusta hospital has adopted a new policy banning Christmas carolers from singing religious songs in public patient areas. The Charlie Norwood VA Medical Center announced the new policy Monday according to the Athens-Banner Herald.
“Military service veterans, male and female, represent people of all faiths,” hospital spokesman Brian Rothwell said in a statement according to Athens-Banner Herald. “It is out of respect for every faith that The Veterans Administration gives clear guidance on what ‘spiritual care’ is to be given and who is to give it.”
“This is not a religious proselytizing, evangelistic issue,” Funsch explained, arguing that Christmas songs are broadcast during the holidays on area radio stations and in local retail outlets.
“We regret any inconvenience or misunderstanding that this (policy) creates,” Rothwell said. “VA policy is welcoming but respectful of all faiths and the protection of each veteran’s right to religious freedom and protection from unwelcomed religious material, to their individual beliefs.”
