” You do understand that people wait for years for organs, right?

So why do you believe that this little girl is more deserving than the people who have been waiting for years and that she should be put in the front of the line?

People die every day because they couldn’t get an organ, but because you know about this one you think it makes you holy to want her to go first? “

None of that is relevant to my point. My point is that thousands of lawsuits will be filed against the death panels as people desperately seek medical care that is being arbitrarily denied to them by the death panels. The arbitrary decisions by the courts will then make a further hash of Obamacare rules.

BTW, the lawsuit had nothing to do with getting her in the front of the line. The Obamacare death panels had arbitrarily said she couldn’t get in line at all.

It's not going to do her much good to be on the adult list if she isn't bumped to the front of the line, is it?

Sure it is. If priority is based on condition then she should be moved up. Otherwise most of the kids may as well just be euthanized now since so few pediatric lungs become available.

If the science is good and they can do the transplant then why have two lists?

Hear today that a Death Row prisoner got a heart transplant. Seems to go against the purpose of Death Row.

Uri’el, how are you?

I'm on the mend; but it will take 6 months to a year.

What’s Sebelius gonna do, step in and stop it?

Not likely because of the extra bad publicity and fear it would generate about Zero care. Probably a prelude to the new system thought: all care will have to go through a litigation process and instead of small claims courts, etc., it will start at the bottom end with bad-cold court, move to pneumonia court, then broken bone court, etc.

I object to the feral government having anything to say about this, and you should too.
Do you want doctors deciding your health care, or judges and bureaucrats?

federal bureaucrats like Sebelius were keeping this girl off the list because of their outdated "rules"
doctors wanted to try to heal this child
I choose the doctors
So did the judge
The judge chose wisely
