Sarah Palin's "death panels" was too much to overcome. Small victory for everyone and we must keep up the pressure.

They still need to JUST SAY NO to the whole rotten mess. They can’t dress up the PIG-it’s still a pig.

It’s a start, but I won’t trust them unless they enact legislation saying they will never do this. Once it gets signed, I heard Obama’s czars can do anything they want.

It didn’t need to be in this bill. The panel to oversee healthare was in the stimulus bill that already passed. It was a red herring in this bill.
In the stimulus bill, being a doctor to sit on this panel is NOT a requirement.

Way too small! There are several Senate bills in the works, then there is the House bill (HR3200). Which version is Sen. Grassley talking about? What a shell game!

This Senate version is still over 600 pages. We all know there’s a backdoor way to get to the same place as the death panels. They weren’t concerned with the “consultations.”

They’re concerned with the money. If there’s a cost/benefit ratio administered by any bureaucrat, then they’ve got exactly the same thing. The “death panels” are now the decision makers on how they ration the dollars.

They’ve already tipped their hand on what they want to accomplish.

Hey this is the standard MO for the Democrat party and the Liberal/Socialist activists. All they need is to get some kind of basic framework passed and instituted into existence.

Sadly the so called Blue Dogs and moderate Republicans will fall for the tactic....................AGAIN!

This is the way the Health care thing will go down......

They create the Health Care Bill as their grand plan for humanity, then after much deliberation and protest the bill is whittled down to a fraction of the original bill, it will then be passed as a bipartisan bill.

Fast forward slightly in time. That will be when the incrementalization will begin.

Bit by bit there will be, by manufactured so called "necessity" incremental changes made to the bill until, over the years the final product will be........TADA!!!!!!

We will have the original intended draft of the bill in all of it's glory .....or even something much much worse.

Sadly, The so called Blue Dogs and moderate Republicans will probably be suckered into this time honored Democrat strategy.

Therefore this thing has to be stopped and buried right now!!!!

This horrible bill is not only discriminatory against our fine elderly in this country but also against many segments of our society not to mention that it totally unconstitutional and is a detriment to this country.

We need to wake up and realize that this is not about the price tag, it's about being ........UNCONSTITUTIONAL!!!!!!

Perfect! So the elites eliminate just one provision and all will be good. The gray-haired suckers (includes me) will now get behind it, with all it’s other flaws. Watch.
