There Will Be Blood(Every now and then a Liberal will slip up and tell the cold-blooded truth)
american spectator ^ | 3/18/10 | andrew thomas

Posted on 03/19/2010 5:26:48 AM PDT by bestintxas

On March 15, Robert Reich wrote in The Huffington Post, "Health care reform is necessary, and House Democrats should vote for it because it's best for the nation." He then went on to justify his assertion purely in terms of positive outcomes for Democrats, not for the people who will be required to live with the actual "reform".

Of course as we all know by now, the true intent of this bill is not to improve the quality of care or to make the current level of care cheaper. It is in fact a purposeful effort by Democrats to do the exact opposite in order to ultimately gain control over the citizenry.

"Aw, that's a bunch of neocon conspiracy crap", some of the more progressively-enabled may say. Listen to what Robert Reich had to say about progressive healthcare reform back on September 26, 2007:

This is what the truth is...If you are very old, we're not going to give you all of that technology and all of those drugs...to keep you alive. It's too expensive, so we're going to let you die...(We're) going to use the bargaining leverage of the federal government...to force drug companies and insurance companies and medical suppliers to reduce their costs. That means less innovation, and that means less new products and less new drugs on the market, which means you are probably not going to live that much longer than your parents.

Kill the Bill Mega Rally at the Capitol, noon Saturday until ???

Note the walking-distance metro stop. Park anywhere and ride the metro in.

Or drive around the Capitol and gridlock traffic while honking thousand of car horns.

we're going to let you die

Could you maybe leave it up to my family and me? And permit me to do the same for you and your family?

LOL! I've gotta say, though - I like the William Shatner / Denny Crane response better.

Isn't that the truth! Common criminals and whores are more honest and trustworthy than the crooks in congress.

I know someone, big lib, union member, whose college-aged, adult son was in a terrible accident, leaving him paralyzed from the neck down. Some of this man’s lib friends were all rejoicing Obama’s win, especially for the benefits of the care his son would recieve with the new “healthcare”. I’m thinking those that are physically limited, such as his son, will be the first to be denied any type of extraordinary care, but as a union member (and a powerful one in this state) can he expect more than what the rest of us non-union working stiffs might get?
