First, the bull**** about killing off the elderly.

On former Sen. Fred Thompson’s radio show, former lieutenant governor of
New York Betsy McCaughey said that the House’s proposed health care bill
contained a provision that would institute mandatory counseling sessions
telling seniors how "to do what’s in society’s best interest … and cut
your life short." House Minority Leader John Boehner made a slightly
more measured statement, warning that the same provision "may start us
down a treacherous path toward government-encouraged euthanasia if
enacted into law."
Geez, you would think the Republicans would get on the same page. The
"Death Panel" was an amendment put in by a pro-life Republican, from your
state by the way. And, it makes sense.

Actually, there are more and more Republicans every day who are getting
fed up with the lies coming from the right concerning Obama's healthcare
plan.
It would be nice if Obama, Pelosi, Reid, etc. would stop telling all
the damn lies. Then all the Republicans (and lots of Democrats)
wouldn't be getting so fed up.

All decisions, even those made by liberals, are the result of binary thinking.
The lies about the healthcare issue is coming from the righteous right.

Nope. You're wrong. There may have been some slight exagerations, but
no lies.

The comments made by the right are based on the bill itself. How often
do you see the 'rebuttals' quoting the bill? They are simply adding
more bull**** to the fire.

When Obama says he doesn't want a single payer health plan, he is
telling a lie.

'Nuff said.

You don't think THIS is a lie?????

Chain e-mail: "On Page 425 of Obama’s health care bill, the Federal
Government will require EVERYONE who is on Social Security to undergo a
counseling session every 5 years with the objective being that they will
explain to them just how to end their own life earlier. Yes…They are
going to push SUICIDE to cut medicare spending!!!"

Page 425 does deal with counseling sessions for seniors, but it is far
from recommending a "Logan’s Run" approach to Medicare spending. In
fact, it requires Medicare to cover counseling sessions for seniors who
want to consider their end-of-life choices – including whether they want
to refuse or, conversely, require certain types of care. The claim that
the bill would "push suicide" is a falsehood.
