THEY ARE OBJECTING TO IT BEING MANDATORY. CHOICE, IT IS A CONCEPT YOU ON THE LEFT SHOULD UNDERSTAND.They understand that it is a useful slogan until they gain enough power to force their choice onto you. As a concept, leftists have no understanding of choice.

It's cruel for that bitch to lie about what OBAMACARE would actually do to all of us! She can shove her lecture where the sun doesn't shine!
Remember, this whore used to be an 'unbiased journalist' with ABC (& CBS). She and her husband (an attorney) are huge Democrat contributors and supporters. Always have been!

No one is prohibited from such advice now.
What they want are mandated meetings for the easily-manipulated elderly in order to “counsel” them to just sign the POA and DNR papers and shut up. And they’re saying they want the language in there so the elderly can have this as a paid for service (ACORN payola here, I’m sure).
Can you imagine if someone has signed the papers and then is admitted to the hospital unconscious for something minor?
This is another change-up on the focus. We need to keep a list.

Even in their rhetoric the dhimmicrats are overreaching. douglas and the deputy WH spokesmoron barton turns logic, reason, and common sense on its head in their clumsy attempts to fool the population into drinking the poison kool aid.
Hope it doesn’t work!

This is one of the central assumptions of these leftist, statist, elitist fools. The assumption is that if THEY don’t provide and control it the rest of us are too stupid, ill educated, unenlightened or incompetent to have thought of it on our own or, if we have, to keep it running correctly.
I will turn 62 in October. I DON’T WANT TO BE HERDED INTO A GOVERNMENT PROGRAM THAT MANDATES WHAT I CAN OR CANNOT DO WTIH MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will make my own damn “end of life” choices. I don’t need some government @#%&^@# “counseling” me or advising me or directing me.

Who is preventing them?
What is cruel is that “the GOVERNMENT” that is paying their pensions and healthcare- to MANDATE that their doctor do so regularly. WHAT IS THIS ABOUT? That offering a pill is a form of compassion?
Talk about influencing the vulnerable.
Linda Douglass has mean scary eyes. Rahm Emanuel eyes. Anyone else notice the hard aura?

The White House's Linda Douglass says it is cruel to prevent seniors from making end of life decisions.The issue is not preventing seniors from making end of life decisions. The issue is the government FORCING them to make such decisions in order to save costs.

Douglass you blithering idiot,She's not being an idiot. She is being a deliberate, bald-faced liar by trying to spin the issue this way.
