Welcome to the VA, How do you want to die today?

I saw this segment this morning with utter and absolute disgust. I have never seen a better example of "We have always been at war with Eurasia, Eastasia has always been our friend" in my ENTIRE life.

To summarize, VA puts out a memo July 2nd telling providers to refer their patients to a end-of-life counseling book called "Your Life, Your Choice." The contents of this book are not important, some like it and some don't. What matters is the insistence of VA Assistant Secretary Tammy Duckworth that this memo never existed. She was asked 3 times about it and said something along the lines of "the last VA memo about end-of-life counseling was in 2007." Chris Wallace HAD THE DOCUMENT IN THE STUDIO!!

As I watched this segment, this women disgraced herself, the administration, and the military. She ignored the facts which were presented to her and made up her own story.

This is the same kind of beaurecrat which allowed for Walter Reed to turn into a Eastern-bloc hospital. The same kind of person who, during routine surgery, messed up and caused an Airman to lose both his legs.

Where are the politicians shouting "We support our troops" now? Oh right, they are on such a well-deserved summer break.
