While Americans were celebrating the Christmas holiday, the Obama administration was reimposing what was called the "Death Panels" that had been taken out of Obamacare after the public protested against them

OK Republican majority ... let’s see your stuff.
I suspect that the new group of Republicans will be shunted aside and that the establishment Republicans will lurch more violently leftward. I think Obama will have considerable success in 2011. A GOP majority doesn’t mean much if the GOP doesn’t focus on conservatism.
I’m afraid you are correct.
This is insane. The doctor and family should be the one to decide. Now if the group of folks want to discuss when to stop payment because the person does not have insurance. I think that would be a logical way to go about this and not just pull the plug when people have insurance and financial means to pay for it.

The most amazing part of the New York Times story is an email from Representative Earl Blumenauer (D-Oregon) to his accomplices back in early November, when these new regulations were being drafted:
“While we are very happy with the result, we won’t be shouting it from the rooftops, because we aren’t out of the woods yet. This regulation could be modified or reversed, especially if Republican leaders try to use this small provision to perpetuate the ‘death panel’ myth… We would ask that you not broadcast this accomplishment out to any of your lists, even if they are ‘supporters’ – emails can too easily be forwarded… Thus far, it seems that no press or blogs have discovered [the new Medicare regulations], but we will be keeping a close watch and may be calling on you if we need a rapid, targeted response. The longer this goes unnoticed, the better our chances of keeping it.”
In other words, you knuckle-dragging imbecile voters might get all riled up if you knew about their glorious triumph, so the Democrats wanted to keep it on the down-low. They were able to complete the process of putting these regulations together behind closed doors, untroubled by any concerned citizens who might have received an email that accidentally got forwarded outside of the conspiracy.

Yes Virginia, There is a Santa Claus....
BUMP
I truly believe they are intetionally trying tp provoke another waco or worse.
Could be. They may be trying to create the “right wing terrorists” they claim exist.
COST REDUCTION: The only way socialized medicine can work is to place a value on human life. If the person is valuable, thumbs up. If the person has little or no value (ie, infants, children or senior citizens), thumbs down. At least they aren’t going to throw us to the lions...oops, maybe they hadn’t thought of that.
The SS trust Fund is an unfunded fraud full of IOU's.
Now all the old retired farts must die instead of living out their lives in peace. Do you get it people? Thanks pols!
Every day seems to be another treasonous act from this communist marxist admn.
Btw - global warming has locked me in the house today. Lol.
He got that right.
Obama told Jon Stewart that O/Care was a "structure" that required "retooling."
PASTE THIS ON YOUR BATHROOM MIRROR AND MEMORIZE IT Vladimir Lenin: "Medicine is the keystone of the arch of the socialist state."
Once govt gets control of medical care, all the defining, controlling features of socialist govt can be introduced, one by one. O/CARE will transfer massive authority to the Obama Admin over the lives of Americans, and their businesses. E-v-e-r-y-thing Americans do is related to health.
========================================
O/CARE Page 58 and 59: The government will have real-time access to an individual’s bank account and will have the authority to make electronic fund transfers from those accounts.
Socialized health care is impossible without seizing private medical records----BUT the 4th Amendment prohibits seizure without warrants. The Obama govt will do it anyway.
========================================
NEIL MCLAUGHLIN, Modern Healthcare "When Congress passed healthcare reform, we joked that the package amounted to a Full Employment Act for health journalists. There were so many provisions and questions about implementing it that it would require weeks and months to sort through it all."
I enjoyed my share of global warming this weekend. It’s the first white Christmas I’ve had in a few years.
What an insult and a huge waste of time and money. Folks die naturally...don’t need no stinking government interference in that. They can take their stupid expensive health care interference and shove it up their asses.
The Kenyan Village Idiot is a puppet figure head for all that is Dirty, Evil and Corrupt in the Demorat Party! Wakeup America!
Eventually, you will see seasoned citizens with nothing to lose taking out mortal retribution on those who have brought this upon them. I will almost feel sorry for the apparatchik who is on the receiving end...almost.
Cost Reduction you say. Wouldn’t cost reduction be stop paying for people medical bills. I would love for once and for all that everyone pays their own medical care either through insurance or personal funds. Why is it that everyone wants a conservative America except when it comes to health care. Conservatives should know better.
I’ve often thought that. The new Greatest Generation may consist of elderly kamikazees going to have a talk with their elected representatives.
