"The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s “death panel” so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their “level of productivity in society,” whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil." - Sarah Palin via Facebook - Friday @ 4:26pm.
Seriously? This is what you bring to the debate on health care? She is referring to a part of the bill in which it states that the program will fund efforts to talk to people and educate them about living wills and end of life decisions once they reach the age of medicare eligibility- something that the government has been advocating for over 20 years!
How is this constructive? How is this relevant? How did she ever get elected to public office? This lying and fear mongering must stop! This is a blatant attempt to scare the uninformed public into thinking that Obama's health care plan is a secret plot to kill old people and special needs children. This is ridiculous. This is offensive and it is our duty to bring this ignorance to light.
This is what we are up against. Let's stand together and tell the conservative right that we will not stand for this.
