The Video That Could Kill ObamaCare

Listen to the anger and betrayal at the end when she realizes that the government she has trusted her entire life screwed her over in her moment of need. Let's show this to Democrats before the vote on Nationalized health care. I'd really prefer not to have to post stories like this featuring distraught Americans who can't believe that Barack Obama's health care plan is responsible for the death their child solely because the waiting list for life-saving treatment from a specialist was too long.

Once again, we mustn't assume that common sense is going to influence very much as long as the media is committed to suppressing it from the masses.

How many issues are there today that are as black and white as what is described in this video that are kept from the public at large entirely or distorted to marginalize it?

This poor lady could find herself blamed as not having properly followed the clearly delineated procedures as the sole cause of her being left hanging. Worse yet, it's entirely conceivable, if the video gets traction, that rumors be circulated by the "tolerant" crowd such as something made up about her past that implies she didn't deserve to medical care.

After all, the current definition of "hate speech" is saying anything that is not approved LiberalSpeak.

I don't understand how the Democrats get away with lauding government health care. For years they lambasted the HMOs saying that how dare they take the decision making for your treatment away from your doctor and into the hands of some mindless, profit-driven bureaucrat.

Now, however, they are trying to force ALL of us into a government health care where the decision making for your treatment is taken away from your doctor and put into the hands of some STUPID, MINDLESS, government bureaucrat. And the MSM ignores it!!!!

Last August I was having very sever gastric problems. I had had them before but just dismissed them as a reoccurring ulcer problem.

My wife set me up for a colonoscospy exam. When I woke up from the exam my wife was standing next to me with tears in her eyes ... she told me that the Doctor told her that I may have Colon Cancer. Ten min. later I was admitted to the hospital and was in a private room. Blood samples taken and all other kinds of other tests. I was wheeled in a wheel chair to all kinds of x-rays and given some special fluid to drink and had a Cat Scan. That afternoon a surgeon came to the room and told me he would be operating on me the next morning. A Aneistisologist came in an introduced himself to me and said he would be there for me.

Believe me I was worried!

Very early the next morning I was taken on my bed to the the operating room. Outside the room they stopped and opened a cabinet and covered me with these wonderful warm blankets. I was taken into the operating room (it was huge, I thought they were small) and moved to a special table. People all around. I was told that there were 15 very experienced people in the room who were dedicated to my situation.

I woke up back in my room. My wife by my side. A few hours after I woke up the Surgeon came in the room and said ... I was one lucky man. They had remove a very large growth from my colon but they had found no cancer. Nothing!

I was in the hospital for another five days.

Went home and recovered over the next 3-4 months. The Surgeon had opened me up from above my navel to my groin - it took a while to recover.

From 6:30 one morning (for a test) to 6:30 the next morning for a major abdominal operation! Wow!

Sorry for the rant. But I am afraid this could not happen under the new ObamaCare!

My rant-
This past weekend my mom fell in the kitchen. After an xray it was revealed that she had a compression fracture in a vertebrae. Years ago this would have required traction and all sorts of pain management. Instead, she had blood work, an MRI, then two balloons inserted into the crushed v which inflated the area, then they injected bone cement. The cement hardens in 15 minutes and viola—basically new vertebrae, harder than any of the others now. She walked out of the hospital the next day, and other than some soft tissue pain from the fall, she is fine.
My dad and I kept talking of 0bambi care, and how things could have been a lot different for her under socialized medicine.
