Obama says he is going to save enough from one huge, inefficient, wasteful government program, Medicare, to pay for an even larger (eventually) also sure to be enefficient wasteful government program, Obamacare.

DOES ANYONE BELIEVE THAT BRAVO SIERRA?

Can you possibly trust or believe after the stimulus, bail-out, and Cash for Clunkers fiascos that this is what will happen?

No.

Read the bill the Democrats put forward. it is a HUGE government bureaucracy.

...and, it will lead to government officials deciding the standards for who gets coverage when...basically, for older Americans, it will amount to death panels.

In the end, the only one who addressed the entire Joint Session and spoke the truth was South Carolina Congressmen Joe Wilson. And he did it with just two words...YOU LIE!

...and then, afterwards, Sarah responded and took Obama to the woodshed:

In fact, after promising to “make sure that no government bureaucrat .... gets between you and the health care you need,” the President repeated his call for an Independent Medicare Advisory Council -- an unelected, largely unaccountable group of bureaucrats charged with containing Medicare costs. He did not disavow his own statement that such a group, working outside of “normal political channels,” should guide decisions regarding that “huge driver of cost ... the chronically ill and those toward the end of their lives....” He did not disavow the statements of his health care advisor, Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, and continuing to pay his salary with taxpayer dollars proves a commitment to his beliefs. The President can keep making unsupported assertions, but until he directly responds to the arguments I’ve made, I’m going to call him out too. - Sarah Palin, September 9, 2009
