It becomes, and thats what i believe. Captioning sponsored by cbs this is the cbs evening news with scott pelley. Pelley good evening. The results of the white house investigation of v. A. Health care were released late this evening, and they paint a bleak picture. It says that v. A. Leadership is not prepared to deliver effective, daytoday management and is marked by an inherent lack of responsiveness. The president ordered this investigation after reports that some v. A.
