"Palin’s observation regarding death panels was accurate.”

In fact, Sarah's comments were so accurate the Senate finally acknowledged them and REMOVED the death panels from their bill.

Just the fact the GOVT was involvd in making the decision as to who gets care and what care, if any, is provided is pragmatically a DEATH PANEL.

Your OBOZO messiah is a socialist thug who lacks any intellect without a teleprompter to read.

So your purpose was not to point out that “Palin is a student of history,” but rather to continue Geraldo’s kooky claim about “martians.”

Take a look at Obama and his friends. You think they wouldn’t want death panels?

Bill Ayers wouldn’t want death panels? (Maybe he’s too kind hearted for that?)

Reverend Wright wouldn’t want death panels?

Saul Alinsky wouldn’t want death panels?

Cloward and Piven wouldn’t want death panels?

Sorry, but this nonsense has gone on too long. It’s time to wise up and understand what this administration is trying to do to our country. They must be held accountable for their current behavior, their ideology and their past.

“Your OBOZO messiah....”

You are either senile, retarded or have been struck repeatedly in the head.

No, Gerald is an idiot.

“Take a look at Obama and his friends. You think they wouldn’t want death panels?”

Want them? Sure they do. Is that LITERALLY what was in the proposal, or was it a bit of a stretch to get there? be objective now.

“Sorry, but this nonsense has gone on too long. It’s time to wise up and understand what this administration is trying to do to our country. They must be held accountable for their current behavior, their ideology and their past.”

Sorry, I was discussing one issue, not the entire movement arrayed against us. Of course they are evil and must be stopped HOWEVER I do not believe that “end of life counseling” constitutes “Death Panels.” This is NOT, I repeat NOT to say that I support end of life counseling or any other part of government run “free” health care; just that what Sarah (who a quick study of my posting history will show that I support) engaged in a bit of political prestidigitation to get from point (A) to point (B) with her statement about “Death Panels.”

I don't think that Sarah Palin was referring to the “End of Life” counselors as “Death Panels”. Rather she was addressing the gov. groups that would decide if a person's life was worth saving, based on their ability to contribute to society. I think the left has deliberately twisted her words to deflect attention from the far more onerous provisions of the bill. If I am not mistaken these “death panels” were established in a hidden part of the stimulus bill.

End of life counseling does not constitute death panels, I agree.

End of life counseling as advanced by Obama, Pelosi, Reid and democrats in general however, will lead to death panels. This fact is established by their behavior and their past. These are people who favor infanticide.

We are not obliged to give them a free pass. We are obliged to look at the patterns, understand where their hearts lie and predict what they are likely to do in the future.

Death panels is correct. Palin was right.

Unfortunately, Palin’s PR woman referred Jake Tapper to the end-of-life counseling provision in the bill when he specifically asked her about the ‘death panels’. That was a big error that got the media on the wrong track.

Obviously your denial of DEATH PANELS is indicative of your lack of intellect & cognitive skills...as well as taking unsubstantiated shots at Gov. Palin.

The only “big error” is the one we commit if we don’t realize that death panels are a major part of any health care plan put forth by the democrats and this administration.

This is why the bill must be stopped in its tracks.

I would challenge you to check my posting history vis a vis Sarah Palin, I am a supporter of hers. Being a supporter of hers does NOT mean being a mind-numbed bobble head nodding in agreement with everything the woman says or does.

What I meant was, are you sure he is the ONLY ONE? I think many of them were/are in the tank for Clinton and, especially the anointed one.
