Health
Death Drugs Cause Uproar in Oregon
Aug. 6, 2008
By SUSAN DONALDSON JAMES

The news from Barbara Wagner’s doctor was bad, but the rejection letter from her insurance company was crushing.

The 64-year-old Oregon woman, whose lung cancer had been in remission, learned the disease had returned and would likely kill her. Her last hope was a $4,000-a-month drug that her doctor prescribed for her, but the insurance company refused to pay.

What the Oregon Health Plan did agree to cover, however, were drugs for a physician-assisted death. Those drugs would cost about $50.

“It was horrible,” Wagner told ABCNews.com. “I got a letter in the mail that basically said if you want to take the pills, we will help you get that from the doctor and we will stand there and watch you die. But we won’t give you the medication to live.”

Critics of Oregon’s decade-old Death With Dignity Law — the only one of its kind in the nation — have been up in arms over the indignity of her unsigned rejection letter. Even those who support Oregon’s liberal law were upset.

The incident has spilled over the state border into Washington, where advocacy groups are pushing for enactment of Initiative 1000 in November, legalizing a similar assisted-death law.

Soon the parents will no longer have a say in this. The state will decide.

Life unworthy of life and all that.

Euthanasia for children

As the law proponents claim, it "marks a turning point in the nation's approach to the rights of young people, some of whom would be able to choose to die if the law were to pass, even while still being legally barred from driving, marrying, voting or drinking liquor until they turned 18," reports IBtimes.com Alzheimer's patients to also face euthanization under proposed law

But wait, there's more! It's not just children who will be euthanized under this new law, it's also scores of Alzheimer's patients.

"Parliamentarians would also consider extended mercy-killing to people suffering from Alzheimer's-type illnesses," said the socialist senator.

Euthanasia is, of course, the most convenient way for any government to get rid of people it doesn't want to care for. Instead of teaching the public how to prevent and reverse Alzheimer's disease, the government simply passes a new law to murder them all while calling it "compassionate medicine."

If I recall, there was a thread here not too long ago about a young man who had reached the age of majority and requested euthanasia because his conversion to female sex change operation had not turned out as he had hope. I believe it was Belgium.

There you have liberal whack-job land in a nutshell: It was illegal to counsel him to accept the gender he was born with or even delay such a life-changing operation until he developed a little more judgement.

But it was fine to put him to death when the proscribed transgender therapy didn't take.

Truly as sick as Sodom.

And the people who put this poor kid to death consider themselves morally superior to a guy like me who just wanted to give him a chance to grow up.

Kathleen Sebelius says decrease in human beings will cover cost of Obamacare contraception mandate

Wednesday, March 07, 2012 by: Ethan A. Huff, staff writer
Tags: Kathleen Sebelius, contraception, depopulation

(NaturalNews) The Obama Administration’s 2013 national budget proposal includes an unconstitutional mandate that insurance companies provide full coverage for birth control drugs and treatments, including sterilizations and drugs that induce abortions. And in defense of the proposed plan, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius actually told a House panel recently that the costs associated with the mandate will be offset by an overall population reduction brought about by the measures.

“The reduction in the number of pregnancies compensates for the cost of contraception,” alleged Sebelius at the hearing, parroting the same claims made by Mr. Obama several weeks ago in defense of the scam, which is really just Big Brother interfering with the private health coverage choices of companies and their employees.

Prayer of Pope Leo XIII to the Archangel Michael

O Glorious Archangel Saint Michael

Prince of the heavenly host, be our defense in the terrible warfare which we carry on against principalities and Powers, against the rulers of this world of darkness, spirits of evil. Come to the aid of man, whom God created immortal, made in his own image and likeness, and redeemed at a great price from the tyranny of the devil.

Fight this day the battle of the Lord, together with the holy angels, as already thou hast fought the leader of the proud angels, Lucifer, and his apostate host, who were powerless to resist thee, nor was there place for them any longer in Heaven.

That cruel, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil or Satan, who seduces the whole world, was cast into the abyss with his angels. Behold, this primeval enemy and slayer of men has taken courage. Transformed into an angel of light, he wanders about with all the multitude of wicked spirits, invading the earth in order to blot out the name of God and of his Christ, to seize upon, slay and cast into eternal perdition souls destined for the crown of eternal glory. This wicked dragon pours out, as a most impure flood, the venom of his malice on men of depraved mind and corrupt heart, the spirit of lying, of impiety, of blasphemy, and the pestilent breath of impurity, and of every vice and iniquity.

These most crafty enemies have filled and inebriated with gall and bitterness the Church, the spouse of the immaculate Lamb, and have laid impious hands on her most sacred possessions. In the Holy Place itself, where has been set up the See of the most holy Peter and the Chair of Truth for the light of the world, they have raised the throne of their abominable impiety, with the iniquitous design that when the Pastor has been struck, the sheep may be scattered.

Arise then, O invincible Prince, bring help against the attacks of the lost spirits to the people of God, and give them the victory. They venerate thee as their protector and Patron; in thee holy Church glories as her defense against the malicious power of hell; to thee has God entrusted the souls of men to be established in heavenly beatitude. Oh, pray to the God of peace that He may put Satan under our feet, so far conquered that he may no longer be able to hold men in captivity and harm the Church. Offer our prayers in the sight of the Most High, so that they may quickly conciliate the mercies of the Lord; and beating down the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, do thou again make him captive in the abyss, that he may no longer seduce the nations. Amen

Behold the Cross of the Lord; be scattered ye hostile powers.
The Lion of the tribe of Judah has conquered, the root of David.
Let thy mercies be upon us, O Lord.
As we have hoped in thee.
O Lord, hear my prayer.
And let my cry come unto thee.
O God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, we call upon thy holy name, and as suppliants we implore thy clemency, that by the intercession of Mary, ever Virgin immaculate and our Mother, and of the glorious Archangel Saint Michael, thou wouldst deign to help us against Satan and all other unclean spirits, who wander about the world for the injury of the human race and the ruin of souls. Amen.

So now children are to receive the same treatment as convicted felons. But not just any felon....the worst of the worst. Those who are adjudicated to be murderers, ....... who receive the death penalty. Then comes a mandatory 15 year appeal. Do these children get the same consideration? The subjectivity of a chief complaint, "this child needs to die", seems arbitrary and a decision to be made by others than the one who is planned to be executed.

It is hard to believe that memories fade so quickly since WWII. I understand they are still digging up ordnance in Belgium to this very day....ordnance which was placed by the nazis. Yet here we are again....different country selecting imposition of death to worthless eaters...that life, unworthy of living.....Humanity has forgotten the lessons of recent history.....so it will be repeated, it seems. Think how far we have moved in the last 30 years.....For those of us with little children or grandchildren.....how far will humanity fall in the next 30 years? Governments contemplating killing innocents.

*Why do governments hate their citizens so much? *

Probably because they don’t see them as people. Just statistics to give them more power and money.

They have told God to stay away, they will take over as being the final authority over the people.

Hitler was an artist before he was a Progressive Socialist. His early paintings had people in them, but the people grew smaller and smaller as the months and years went on until there were no people in his paintings, or they were merely tiny dots. This is how most governments view their people.

“When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, But when a wicked man rules, people groan.”
Proverbs 29:2
