We went through this not long ago. Here are the before and after pictures of Terry Schiavo. Her brain the size of a softball for 15 years! Terry Schiavo article
That time the Republican Evangelical Party went too far and lost both the legal and public opinion battle. But that time it didn’t cost Americans anything, not so this time. And if it costs someone something for someone else here in America, it aint going to happen. After all this is a Christian Nation founded on the central Christian Value of fk you…
It is American Christianity that is most responsible for holding our health care hostage to a system of profit for the wealthy while leaving the least of us to emergency room care and REAL corporate death panels. It seems to be the very antithesis of everything Christ stood for. And of course, it is. Americans have transformed the Spirit of Christianity into the Corporation of Christianity.
Fox News Sunday spent the morning changing the phrase from "Death Panel" to "End of Life Counseling". They have equated the two, they are now the same thing. The GOP machine is on this like a fly on crap, and it is sure to be the talking point from now until they manage to deny the least of us everything they can get their hands on including their health. In the name of Jesus no less. Like privatizing Social Security! Wow hey? Boggles the mind had they passed that hey?
It began last week with a WSJ piece by Faith Based Bush Administration wonk Jim Towey’s attack on a voluntary VA pamphlet asking end of life questions. The Death Book for Veterans
Neo Con Charles Kruthhammer in his Sunday column got it down to the basics: End of Life counseling and Living Wills are worthless, wrong and intrinsically evil. End-of-life counseling is a subtle push out the door
This is one of so many issues where what conservatives find so abhorrent is in reality just well meaning common sense. Though some Democrats and Moderate Republicans (all three of them) are scared crapless by how many of their less than intelligent constituents will believe whatever silly crap comes their way by AM radio or Fox News channel.
The GOP is in lock step with this issue of VOLUNTARY End of Life Counseling which they are now comparing to euthanasia, Dr Kevorican, The Hemlock Society, mass suicides and government ice flows. You know damn well where this bullcrap is coming from.
It comes from intolerant dogmatic EVANGELICAL CHRISTIAN BULLSHIT.
With this being the most Christian nation in the civilized world, no matter how insane this crap – or any such crap for that matter is, it will work in this nation which is heated by the idiot wind, blowing from the backwoods of the South…
We are witnessing the end of Health Care reform because… Let me say this again.
Because of intolerant dogmatic Evangelical Christian BULLSHIT. GODAMN RIGHT!
