Report: VA IG ousted over indecent acts

[alp227]

The Department of Veterans Affairs is staying silent following a media report that its former top watchdog resigned for masturbating in front of others, including teachers.

Jon Wooditch, who served as an acting and deputy inspector general, left the department in 2008 after he was caught masturbating at the agency’s all-glass conference room that is visible to the public, according to The Daily Caller. An undisclosed investigation by the Interior Department obtained by the media website said that Wooditch repeatedly denied his lewd conduct.

Wooditch was first caught with pornographic images on his computer in 2003 before the VA “counseled him” on his behavior, according to The Daily Caller. He was promoted to acting IG soon after, until it was announced that George Opfer would become the permanent IG in November 2005.

Under Wooditch’s tenure, the VA disclosed a national audit of outpatient scheduling, which admitted that outpatient wait times were on the rise. It didn't happen until news broke last April that veterans were dying while waiting for care, specifically at the Phoenix VA hospital. Outcry from veterans and public officials sparked VA Secretary Eric Shinseki’s resignation in 2014.

UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES COMMITTEE ON OVERSIGHT AND GOVERNMENT REFORM DRAFT COMMITTEE REPORT OCTOBER 2008
THE ACTIVITIES OF THE WHITE HOUSE OFFICE OF POLITICAL AFFAIRS

The view that White House officials could legally promote the election of Republican congressional candidates led to an extensive effort prior to the 2006 elections. From January 1 to November 7, 2006, Bush Administration officials participated in 326 events with Republican candidates suggested by the political affairs office, more than one per day. Cabinet officials and agency heads personally attended 306 of these events. Of these 326 events, 303 required travel outside of Washington, D.C. Thirty-two officials from 12 cabinet agencies and three independent offices journeyed to 35 states to make appearances with 99 Republicans running for election in 2006. Even offices with statutory provisions prohibiting political activity, like the Office of National Drug Control Policy, were enlisted in the election effort.

This effort was coordinated by the White House Office of Political Affairs. Mr. Mehlman told the Committee that when he ran the political affairs office, he worked with Republican party committees to identify “vulnerable Republican members” as well as “battleground races, and States and places where they agreed the most help was needed.” E-mails from the White House to agency officials in 2006 referred to “our top priorities going into November” and achieving “a good result on 11/7.” Other e-mails exhorted agency officials: “Only 49 days left!” or “Only 19 days to go.” The White House sent out memoranda with “suggested events” on a weekly basis to agency officials and tracked progress on a “surrogate matrix” that listed vulnerable Republican members and the dates cabinet secretaries and other officials would make appearances on their behalf.

The Committee asked the federal agencies and the White House for information about who paid for the travel and other costs associated with the recommended events. The information the Committee received was incomplete. But it shows that the costs of attending the majority of the events outside of Washington, D.C. — at least 185 of the 303 events — were paid for with taxpayer dollars. In some instances, the White House specifically requested that travel be billed to the taxpayers to save Republican campaigns money. The White House Office of Political Affairs e-mailed the Department of Veterans Affairs to ask whether there was an “official component” to the Secretary’s trip to Washington State in July to appear with Doug Roulstone, a nonincumbent Republican House candidate at a campaign event, explaining: “Needless to say, trying to save the campaign as much $$ as possible.”

Military Times needs a better source

8. This all happened in 2008?

I'm trying to figure out the importance of the story seven years later. Is the guy in the news again for another reason?

9. K&R. Meanwhile further up the chain of command there's even far worse history that seldom gets men-

tioned today-for example the pedophile "elite".

In the same epoch there was the undeniably similar case of The Finders in Florida.

15. Armchair Subversive has been tracking pedophiles & other sex offenders by political party for years

The Franklin Credit/Finders etc. "scandals" have expanded as well as the abuse, rape and human trafficking of children often by those authorized to "protect" them. There is a connection to both the US military and intelligence communities that is still labeled CT by those complicit in the evil of it.

Monsignor Hupp was courageous about confronting the Boys Town/Larry King et.al network imo and those of many others.
Bishop Accountability.org is another great resource for those of US seeking justice.

16. Thanks for the WikiSpooks links.

I've heard WikiSpooks mentioned on Unwelcome Guests, but I never checked them out before.

11. They promoted him AFTER catching him with porn on his work computer.

So an all-glass conference room wankfest was probably inevitable.

12. Nothing says "I need help"

Like masturbating in an all glass conference room.

17. No doubt this creepy guy parroted the same idiocy that he cannot live without sex

No doubt this creepy little fella parroted the same idiocy that he cannot live without sex and is entitled to it. Creepy, creepy little fella.
