A rational argument can be made for allowing PAS [physician-assisted suicide] in order to offset the amount society and family spend on the ill,

These people are dangerously deranged!

Everyday, America is looking more and more like a cheap “B” movie from back in the 60s.

“To be honest with you, you are too costly, we have to kill you...”

Once this administration's bean counters are in control mandatory euthanasia will soon follow.

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

Mr. Wagglebee;

Visit Europe and stay there for awhile and see that this policy is already put into practice. Many older people do not want to be admitted to hospital for fear that they may wake up dead one morning.

We have already started the long descent down the slopes to hell.

Hey Wes...you first you sick bastard.

Bump for later reference

[CodeMasterPhilzar]

Dang, beat me to it. That’s what I was thinking.

You read it wrong, Wesley J. Smith is one of the premier pro-life leaders in the fight against euthanasia. He was commenting on what others are saying.

The Oregon Medicaid story is both shocking and a little uplifting (when the pharmaceutical company donates the anti-cancer drug), but we know we can't count on that always happening.

When does the state start offering assisted suicide, say, when the patient has an infected molar and can't pay to have it extracted? (and I do know of a case where no dentist in the area offered services without pre-payment).

This article exposes the wisdom of Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman....who wishes to kill fellow citizens.

Everyone who argues for Obamacare should be asked to see the movie, “Soylent Green”

Can anyone post a pic of Sid Roth (Edward G. Robinson) in the suicide room?

Claremont McKenna College, not exactly a hotbed of radicalism

Wasn't this the same college where the professor staged the hate crime?
