Sarah Murnaghan to be added to transplant list (Sebelius slapped)

A federal judge in Philadelphia has made a dying 10-year-old eligible to seek donor lungs from an adult transplant list.

U.S. District Judge Michael Baylson says he is granting the temporary request because of the severity of Sarah Murnaghan's condition.

Her mother, Janet Murnaghan, says the family is thrilled by the ruling. It's in effect until a June 14 court hearing.

The family is challenging organ transplant rules that say children under age 12 must wait for pediatric lungs to become available. The Murnaghans say that rarely happens.

Sarah's doctors believe they can perform a successful transplant with adult lungs.

Sarah has been hospitalized at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia for three months with end-stage cystic fibrosis.

On Tuesday, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius declined to intervene.

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

Kathleen Sebelius supports the murdering of children.

Wonder if the sockpuppet’s handlers will go to court to overturn the judge’s ruling . . . wouldn’t that be great press? And where’s the attacks on Palin now . . . death panel and all?

So instead of getting in line and following the rules like the thousands of other hopeful organ transplant recipients, the way you do it now is go to a judge and he puts you in the front of the line.

The trial lawyers are delirious with joy.

Its an idiotic outdated rule.

Preview of Obama Care.....

Stupid c... ah... knucklehead.

[catnipman]

Starting to look like it’ll take Federal court orders to obtain medical care under Obamacare.

Its an idiotic outdated rule.

It was a rule developed by actual transplant surgeons.

Since it is obvious that you prefer that politicians and judges make your medical decision instead of doctors, Ubamacare is just what you deserve.

PS - How many transplants have you done?

She could accept an adult organ but the rules only allowed her to be put on the pediatric list, which would’ve taken forever.

She'll get some judge to agree that the Sarah is only here with her problem because her mother failed to seek proper late-term family planning back in 2003.

That sorry excuse for a human being, Sebelius, needs alot more than slapping!

So much for The Party of Compassion©, huh?

Don't be so sure. Obama, or Sebelius, or some David Axelrod, will simply redefine "compassion." The MSM and LIVs will bark and clap their flippers with delight.

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?
