Fox News Chris Wallace Challenges Veteran's Administration to Remove "Death Booklet" from VA Website - Video 8/23/09

Here is video of Assistant Sec. of Veteran's Affairs Tammy Duckworth on Fox News Sunday being challenged by Chris Wallace about the booklet used by the Veteran's Administration to do "end of life counseling" with elderly or ill veterans about whether their "life is worth living." Critics have referred to it as a "Death Book for Veterans."

Duckworth is a veteran herself, and a hero, but she was totally wrong in this segment about whether this booklet is being used with veterans. She claimed it is not being used, but Wallace demonstrated that it is being used. She claims it is just one option that is available, but its use has not been approved at the highest levels of the Veteran's Administration.

At the end of the segment, Wallace flatly challenges her to take the Booklet off the VA website. She said it has to stay there because it was developed with federal grant money, but that it has a disclaimer telling people not to use it! Does that sound like government for you?
