congressman tim murphy who is a republican who is a democrat were contacted by the pittsburgh va.ese wait lists. these wait lists called near lists on which people are put on the list to try to get health care and they never get off the wait list and never get that appointment. it comes down to the fact that the head of the pittsburgh va told the two congressman that she had known about the fact that the wait list had almost 700 people on it but the national va told her not to share that information with area members of congress. the congressmen are very upset. a guy named gary with the regional headquarters, and he apparently according to sources said that a woman in the national va named vivica wright simpson she had told them. the audit from a couple of days ago was much smaller than $700. they believe they were trying to cook the books and get as many people off the list as they could before the list went public. now the chairman of the house veteran's affairs committee is very upset. we got a statement saying interfering with congress's oversight responsibility is not just wr
