I can also foresee more encouragement to take up dangerous lifestyles so as to self-terminate even earlier. And I just don’t mean just sexual lifestyles, I also mean thrill seekers, more drug usage, (great for Overdose deaths there), and bunch more that don’t come to mind right away.

We will come full circle ... smoking will be encouraged, as will obesity, no seat belts in cars, no helmets for motorcycles, etc. There was an old Woodie Allen movie (can't remember the name) where the world finally discovered that french fries and ice cream were good for you. We laughed at the movie back then, never thinking that such notions would ever come to pass.

Up is down, down is up, right is wrong, wrong is right. What a world we're in!

The tragic irony in this is that the bill funds abortion on demand, essentially destroying the tax base needed to fund the health care bill!

The ultimate Law of Unintended Consequences.

Two Republican leaders in the House ... are confirming .. that the health care .. bill the House is currently considering promotes euthanasia. .. The government-run health care plan would require "end of life" counseling for seniors. ..House Republican Leader John Boehner ... confirm those fears. .. "Section 1233 ... "may place seniors in situations where they feel pressured to sign end of life directives they would not otherwise sign."

Excuse my language but Democrats are a bunch of sick sons-of-bit_hes!

They're mentally deranged NAZI eugenicists pretending to be civilized people. Every one of them should be locked up in mental asylums, not sitting in the US Congress writing *Helthcare* which will be nothing but mandatory death sentences for 'the unworthy'.

'Come On Grandmas, Let's Hurry.'

'It's Time For Your Showers.'
If and/or when they come for me, my wife, or family -- they BETTER bring an Army.
As I'll give them some 'end of life counseling' -- HOT lead!

" The tragic irony in this is that the bill funds abortion on demand, essentially destroying the tax base needed to fund the health care bill! With insufficient funds, it is now incumbent on society to eliminate the feeble and elderly."

Yep. As you might imagine, old geezers like me arein their sights. I just posted a blogpost to my Half-Baked Sourdough page yesterday on this very topic, using this link.

Please consider emailing a talk show host(s), even a local one, to have Betsy McCaughey on their radio show. That’s what I did, and a talk show host had her on his show a few days later, and he thanked me for helping him.

If the talk show host needs her email, send me a PM and I’ll give it to you.

Who here thinks that 65 is "the elderly"? Anyone who has relatives at The Villages or Sun City, would beg to differ. They are more active than boomers: swimming, dancing, golfing, shopping, tennis...

Send Barack Obama for a townhall meeting at The Villages. See how that goes. LOL This should be hammered home to Senator Bill Nelson. He'd be killing his constituents if he votes for Obamacare.

Rush on subject now. Obama answering AARP members this afternoon. “Live audience” (probably pre-selected questions). AARP is for Obamacare. It is suicidal to be for Obamacare.

The Woody Allen movie you referred to is “Sleeper.”

Mr. RightField turned 65 two days ago. He definitely is not elderly. He does substitute teaching at a couple of local high schools, and without exception, other teachers think he's around 50. They are flabbergasted to know how old he actually is. I'd describe him as active and frisky. hehe
