Boehner, R-Ohio and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., don’t find common ground on a lot of issues, but both lawmakers staked out similar positions Thursday on Eric Shinseki, rebuffing calls for the embattled Veterans Affairs secretary’s resignation. “They kept the information form the secretary and the Congress. So let’s reward them by removing the secretary?” Pelosi asked at her weekly news conference. “Certainly what was done is dishonest, let’s just see what else it is.”
