VA Secretary McDonald made a claim that he was Special Forces, why is he still in office?
Why isn't he held to the same standards as everyone else?
I believe he should be gone!
There is no excuse for that! A formal apology should not be enough, he should be dismissed immediately.

He should be fired immediately.
"What years did you serve? I served in Special Forces too". Not exactly sure how this accidentally misspoken.

You have to wonder what is wrong with these people, especially those in the public eye. It is just too easy to verify/validate service and/or assignments. Apparently for many of them, their real life just doesn't measure up so they lie to make themselves feel better about who they are.
Will the VA Secretary resign. I'm betting no. He will try to use the "I was trying to connect with a homeless vet and embelleshed so I could connect with him" story. You see, he was just doing public service work while he was lying. That makes it all better.

What I don't get, SSG Sean Garcia, is how this can be described as a "mistake." That's what I heard the Secretary say ... That he was trying to connect with a homeless vet and he embellished a little to try to make that connection.
I ask myself, "What's with these senior folks and TV personalities and their 'mistakes'?" I just don't get how a person "forgets" what they did earlier in life, especially as regards military training and assignments.

SSG Sean Garcia
I agree completely, I doubt Tis is the first time he's "slipped-up" and it's pathetic. Given his position there is no excuse
