An elderly woman received a pacemaker when she was 100 years old. She's now 105 and thriving. This is Obama's response. Give her pills and let her die. This is on page two at the link.

What Obama said was typical Obama. Words that made his evil plan sound more palatable.

We have become a shameful nation. That we would elect someone who has no value for a life, young or old.

I hope the young realize that he will be controlling every aspect of their lives. Their only purpose is to work and pay taxes so that he and his elitist scum can enjoy the fruits of their labor and the bounty of the world.

The man Obama has no sense of family, his was trash, and so is he.

O is just naive and ignorant enough to believe that by using intrinsically flawed and insensitive statistical outcomes measures the government will be able to both increase quality and cut costs. Not true, and guaranteed to lead to very significant rationing. I would ask the granola eating zealots on the left this question regarding statistical outcomes analysis. “If it cannot be shown statistically that eating organic food or taking vitamin supplements prolongs life, would you agree not to buy and consume them anymore? Do you believe this proves they don't have an effect and are not better for you?” People only use the statistics that tell the story they believe.

Maybe you're better off not having the surgery, but taking the painkiller.

Maybe people want to be drug-free. This guy is totally clueless!

Obama-Care will bring us:

* The scientific dishonesty of Global Warming The compassion of an IRS agent
* The lines of the US Postal Service or DMV
* The fiscal responsibility of the Pentagon who brought us $500 hammers and $1,000 toilet seats
* The lobbying of the wives of like Senators Daschle and Dodd
* Expansion of staff for Senators and Congressman to handle health care disputes

...and this....

The New Stasi (formerly known as ACORN) guards a geriatric clinic. Elderly shooed away told to 'Do us all a favor and go home and die'.

Obviously, Obortion Obama does not understand that all life is precious.

Prayer for Those Who Are Terminally Ill

 
Lord Jesus, you healed so many people during your public ministry. I bring before you now, in prayer, all those who are terminally ill -- those afflicted with cancer, AIDS, and other illnesses.
 
Look lovingly and compassionately upon them. Let them feel the strength of your consolation. Help them and their families to accept this cross they are asked to carry.  Protect them from euthanasia, Lord.
 
Let them see you carrying their cross with them, at their side, as you once carried yours to Calvary. May Mary be there, too, to comfort them. 
 
Lord Jesus, I know and believe that, if it is your will, you can cure those I pray for (especially N.). I place my trust in you. I pray with faith, but I also pray as you did in Gethsemane: your will be done. 
 
Bless us, Lord, and hear my prayer. Amen.

Thanks for posting this quote. I was looking for this earlier today. I have elderly relatives who are still active, but on prescription meds of various sorts. Obama (and sadly, some freepers) would yank their coverage and leave them to die—yet give any care needed to illegals.

I did not watch it. Did anyone suggest some savings could be had by not treating illegal immigrants in emergency rooms for every sniffle and sore throat?

One thing is certain. When Congress gives Obama the ability to make life and death choices for Americans,it is over my Friends. If your above the age of Retirement & on Medicare. You are in even deeper trouble. America will soon have deep regrets for not paying attention to what Obama has been doing and will do.

SHUT UP AND DIE, GRANDMA!

One of the most galling things is that all the movies and TV shows that are full of righteous anger at evil, insensitive insurance companies which “refuse” to give “life-saving treatment” because of “money” won’t even blink at the government for doing the same thing.

I am just curious how the AARP will portray Obama’s health care plan to seniors. Normally the AARP presents the message that Republicans want seniors to eat dog food and are plotting to take all their Medicare away. But, since Obama actually does want to severely limit senior citizens’ medical care once they become old and useless eaters, how will the AARP continue to shill for Obama and the Democrat party?

Wow.
There is so much pathology in that highlighted excerpt-it should give every American nightmares.
“ We “ are going to let doctors know that their treatments aren’t working .
Republicans should take this clip and run with it.
Obama’s use of “ mothers “ is interesting.
Considering his own troubled and ambivalent relationship with his mother.
Refusing to visit his dying mother was very passive aggressive.

That is what the fools that voted for obama wanted.... Not exactly they wanted the free ride he promised. They wanted to live off the blood and work of others. They made the mistake of believing one of Satan’s emissaries.

The government’s decision as to who will and will not live only applies to Pubs and those who are in disagreement with it.
Our problem here in America is that there is no nation on earth that could possibly rescue us as we did in Europe. God bless the 2nd Amendment.

"...We've been debating this stuff for decades."

Stuff? Stuff? My life is just STUFF in Obama's mystical world?

NO to Obama care...America takes care of her old and her young. Get any further Government out of my health care.....Impeach the b******d!...he wants to murder senior citizens in order to have more of your $$$$s to squander. This impostor scares the bejezzus out of me.

But what we can do is make sure that at least some of the waste that exists in the system that's not making anybody's mom better, that is loading up on additional tests or additional drugs that the evidence shows is not necessarily going to improve care, that at least we can let doctors know and your mom know that, you know what? Maybe this isn't going to help. Maybe you're better off not having the surgery, but taking the painkiller.

Either Barack Obama is being very imprecise with his language, or he is one scary dude. I think the latter is true.

If I continue breathing, evidence shows it is not necessarily going to result in me living to see tomorrow. I could get hit by a bus, a bullet, or a wayward Space Toilet. By this language, no care would be justifiable unless there was a 100% guarantee that the patient would improve.

By that standard, all medical care should be suspended immediately.

I can't find that quote in the transcript,

Did he really say this???
