“The new President has been bruised along the way as poll numbers are falling and he has seen his message hijacked as town meetings have exploded with wild and false rumors of 'death panels' deciding when a human life should end,” Brian Williams declared at the top of Wednesday's NBC Nightly News, in adopting as fact the liberal presumption that conservatives, not liberals, are guilty of the misrepresentations.

In advance of President Obama's prime time speech before Congress to push his health care agenda, Williams began his September 9 newscast for the Eastern and Central time zones:

Brian Williams is a pantywaist chickenshit. All you need is to look at his pathetic hang-dog face. What else would you expect from this sad sack loser?

Williams is a boot licking liberal.

When Brian Williams peers through glasses on the tip of his nose while interviewing Barack Obama then I might pay him more attention.

...town meetings have exploded with wild and false rumors of 'death panels' deciding when a human life should end,”...on the other hand, Obama does have a medical advisor - Zeke Emmanuel - who proposes withdrawing basic medical care from those who are no longer productive, self-actualizing members of society, such as those with dementia - eerily close to that story out of Britain recently about patients being left to die without care if it appeared they weren't going to recover from their illnesses - if Obama hadn't surrounded himself with some very cold-hearted, sinister, and suspicious "advisors", such rumors as "death panels" would have no legs whatsoever....

Well, Obama was right. The death panels aren’t in HR 3200. They were in the stimulus bill. So technically, he wasn’t lying. He already got Obamacare part 1 passed.

Ruin Your Health With the Obama Stimulus Plan: Betsy McCaughey

One new bureaucracy, the National Coordinator of Health Information Technology, will monitor treatments to make sure your doctor is doing what the federal government deems appropriate and cost effective. The goal is to reduce costs and “guide” your doctor’s decisions (442, 446).
