This is really sad... More proof that “we support our troops” are only words to the liberals in charge...
The scary thing is depression can MAKE life feel like it’s not worth it. The LAST thing someone who is suffering from clinical depression should be told is that they are worthless to society — and they should NOT be making decisions like “end of life care” while they are still suffering from any sort of acute phase of depression/mental illness (and expense).
A look into some of these proposals within the VA should tell people what Obama would LIKE to do with the rest of us — or whoever THEY deem to be “unworthy” of further efforts.
RATS are always all about killing us, after all we can still vote for them from the grave.
Great! Keep up the good work! We have to let Americans know what these marxist monsters are doing...especially to our vets! This goes way beyond a ‘living will’. It is a guilt trip to encourage our heroic vets to deny themselves the basics of healthcare at the most vulnerable time of their lives! It is stunningly evil and callous.
Me? It was my stupid email program!
Early on they speak of studies that show most family members do the wrong thing when faced with decisions from the patients view but they don’t name the studies; then they run a bunch of ‘what if?’ situations using named people as examples of such decisions; nowhere in this was it stated that these were real people or whether they were part of the uncited ‘studies.’ (Although that seems implicit)
A strong theme runs throughout the booklet as it makes its way to the obvious expectation that those who read it need to sign such a thing or face delays at the time such a situation is encountered.
Code Blue is the second most popular name for a pet dog by emergency room staff, I’ve heard.
I just sent that link to about 75 friends and asked them to forward it on as well. This must go to Rush, Hannity, Levin, Beck, Malkin, Reagan, Hedgecock, Savage, and anyone else that get the truth out. I find this reprehensible and contemptible beyond words other than profanity.
Deny them critical care Obama and you're denying the blood, sweat and tears that bought this nation it's freedom. SHAME, SHAME, SHAME UPON YOU!

Anytime you sign anything including your life over; it’s not yours anymore and that’s what this bill says.
It should not have happened.
Remeber to get it to Laura Ingraham as well.
Passing along to everyone I can. Thanks.
Bump for later!!!
Will definitely do that, thank you. I hope it’s enough.
Keep doing it....spread the word.
Encourage others do do the same
What’s the difference??? My Body My Choice!
Isn’t there legal precedent?
Here's one for you (if you haven't heard it listen with tissues):
“LETTERS FROM WAR”
