But the website PolitiFact.com found that there were never any plans to introduce so called "death panels" to decide who should live or die.

Of course Sarah used her term "death panels" as a metaphor for future rationing which has been a part of every one of the proposed bills, not to mention every country that has socialized medicine. It's my guess that Sarah didn't qualify her term as a metaphor so that the leftist pols, interest groups and media would jump on it as a "lie" and if (GOD FORBID!) a bill is passed then the blueprint for such rationing will be found in the bills language and she will be able to then prove that she was on the money.

Sorry, but Barack Obama told the biggest lie of the year on January 20, 2009 when he said, “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”

They are so afraid of her they are $hitting in their pants.

Everything they say, admits their fear of her.

I won’t bother reading the BS propaganda that was printed at the source, but do they happen to mention how, soon after Gov. Palin brought up the topics of death panels, “they” started trying to restrict the number of people obtaining mammograms on a yearly basis?

Al Gore said that the magma inside the earth’s mantle is “millions of degrees” hot.

Obama said his Administration would be “the most transparent ever”.

The UK Telegraph engages in the Big Lie. Palin was dead on accurate and the Telegraph is a bald faced propagandist here.

In the UK the Death Panels are very active. Something with the Orwellian bureaucratic acronym of NICE denies Brits treatments for cancer and other serious illnesses.

On the clinical wards, the Death Panel euphemism is called the “Liverpool Protocols.”

Awful disingenuous of PolitiFact.com, because Sarah did not mention Obama was going to introduce death panels. She insinuated, there are death panels, and there are.

August 15, 2009 'Death panel' is not in the bill... it already exists

That lie is tied for 1st place with about 1K of lies that were preceded by the words:”Let me be clear.”

Politifact is a “panel of experts”? Experts at what?

This outfit is run by the leftists at the St. Petersburg Times, and they always toe the party line.

I am sorry to see the Telegraph drinking this koolaid. I thought they were getting some sense this past year.

Go Sarah!!! She put this out on facebook and she’s got all these leftists in a twist because they know that 0bamacare must eventually lead to rationing and they don’t want the sheeple to figure that out until it’s already in place.

Does anyone remember Robert Reiches statement about “if you are old (senior citizen) and you need “expensive” treatment WE WILL LET YOU DIE.

How stupid do the media think we are.

The only way to not have a government bureaucrat decide on life or death for a patient is to approve EVERY procedure and medication for EVERY patient as ordered by EVERY doctor.

Refuse just one, just one time and that bureaucrat becomes a death panel of one.

No. They don’t call them “death panels” but the function is certainly written into the legislation. Given my family and personal medical history, Dead. Man. Walking. Countless generations of my family paid into the system, paid their taxes, served their country, and now the parasites will take everything. Words cannot adequately describe my sense of betrayal.

I really did not think Sarah was that big a contender for 2012. But, it is apparent the left and the UK consider a very serious contender, indeed.

These death culturists wouldn't know the Truth if it bit them on the heel.

My guess is that this ‘panel of experts’ comes from the same general stagnant pool of global warming, economic and other so called sages. Laughable.
