Palin was Right on "Death Panels"

  1. By the end of Obama's reign, we will be lucky if we're even allowed to have this conversation. Look at his role model Hugo Chavez in venezuela. Criticizing the government will not only cost you your job, like it does here. It will land you in jail.

  2. I can only imagine how being a Caucasian would affect one's favor with those "life panels". I'm sure there will be racial quotas to meet, just as with every other government distribution of resources. :eek:

  3. Let me guess...you are a white guy fearful of minority groups treating whites like whites have treated minority groups...

  4. As much as that would make your tiny wiener as hard as a drive by the elementary playground, it's another false claim.

    LOL! You just said that you believe that non whites will be in charge of running health care death panels!!! LOL!!

    I'd say no, having to make health care choices for ones self based on a life time of earning or saving, or not, is nothing at all like having those choices made for you by a government board.

  7. So in your mind a board made up of private sector bureaucrats working for a health insurance denying/delaying health care such that you would die is different than a government board doing the same thing...

    Fascinating...

    What, do you think you will go to private sector Heaven when you die at the hands of an insurance company, where under government health care you go to govenment sector Heaven?

    Too flugging funny...

  8. The difference is when a person dies because an insurance company denied coverage, it is a scandal and an outrage, even if the company was justified. It is also extremely rare, despite the media trying to make it seem routine. We know from historical experience with socialized medicine, in Great Britain for example, that extreme neglect and rationing of care for the elderly and most vulnerable are not only commonplace but designed into the system.

  9. "The difference is when a person dies because an insurance company denied coverage, it is a scandal and an outrage, even if the company was justified."

    Are you personally outraged that an insurance company made a financial decision over someone's life?
