Obamacare Architect Finds Cure for Old Age

If George Washington was the father of our country, Benjamin Franklin was its grandfather. While the former was fighting the British at home, the latter was on the other side of the Atlantic securing the money and arms that kept the revolution alive. It is no exaggeration to say that, without Franklin’s indefatigable diplomatic efforts in Europe, the American Revolution would have failed. What has this to do with Obamacare? When that conflict was officially ended by the Treaty of Paris, Franklin was 77 — well past the age when key ACA architect Ezekiel Emanuel says we should all embrace death.

Last week the Atlantic published an essay by Emanuel titled, “Why I Hope to Die at 75,” wherein he avers that “families — and you — will be better off if nature takes its course swiftly and promptly.” Note the words “you” and “families.” Its title notwithstanding, Emanuel’s article isn’t really about himself. It is actually a none-too-subtle attempt to make us feel guilty for burdening our families, and society in general, by clinging to life past what he considers the optimum age to die. In other words, it is you whom he hopes will go gentle into that good night after three-quarters of a century.

I'm sure Ezekiel Emanuel would be happy to have some assistance in doing his bit for the "good of the collective" (whatever that is). Just think how much carbon dioxide would be saved!

Zeke can kiss my a$$.

Here's another hero of the American Revolution, who at 80 years old, fought the redcoats, was shot, bayoneted, and beaten yet managed to kill 3 redcoats, survived and lived to 98!
