Every single one.
If you remember, the IG report contained a scandalously deceptive and out-of-left field claim that while 40 people died on the wait list awaiting treatment that could save their life, their deaths could not be medically attributed to the delay.
This is an absurd statement, as medical reasons for death include "heart failure" and the like -- actually bodily failures that result in death. For example, you would never say that "drunk driving" was the medical cause of death. The medical cause of death might be bleeding out or massive trauma to the head, which were caused by a car crash caused by drunk driving; but the actual medical cause of death would be "bled out" or "massive brain trauma."
You could never assign blame to the VA using this particular standard.
But that was the whole point of it. They insisted on a standard which wasguaranteed to give them a favorable talking point.
Then they sold that to the media as exonerating the VA.
Which was the plan, as the emails show.
