I dont know who to trust anymore. I was at my doctor yesterday having tests to make sure my blood thinners are working so I asked him about the end of life stuff in obamacare and what he thought of it. He talked a bunch about living wills and hospice care and said it was a good thing. He actually laughed when I said they were going to kill older people like me and he said doctors would never allow something like that its really about making your own decisions about your own care in advance so your family doesnt have to guess and struggle with it.

Ive known this doctor for many years he was with us when my husband passed and is even a republican. He is not a fan of ozero but didnt seem that worried about obamacare. I always thought I could trust him I dont know what to think now.

Doctors won't kill you outright. Most are compassionate, caring and interested in your continued health. Your death, under the Obama plan, will come from a bureaucrat that prevents your doctor from treating you, and prescribing lifesaving medication that the bureaucrat deems to be too expensive.

I don't know, but have no trouble believing he's sincere. Bad ideas are always calculated to appear reasonable. Not everybody has a sense of the human capacity to be beguiled by what seems right.

That's how come it happens over and over and over...

wow
your Doc is the only Doc I have heard of who supports bozo’s plan.

Even obama’s own Doc doesn’t support it as mine doesn’t either
