Who Fell on their swords was the Officers in charge of management at Walter Reed. They are ultimately responsible. The people who did not do the work were employees of IAP Worldwide.quote:Originally posted by NashBama:
Who took the blame for the problems at Walter Reed when they surfaced? Was it a private business owner or someone who was paid by the Federal Government? Hiring civilians does NOT make the hospital private, why are you having trouble understanding such a simple concept?
You could not argue with the original example, therefore you are changing the discussion. I'm done with this and will not read this discussion any further.
The decision to change from civilian DoD employees to IAP was made by THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE, Acting on instructions from GW Bush.
