“Killing” is such an emotionally laden term. Let’s just say “rendered inoperable”, or better yet, “put away”.

I understand baby skin makes a lovely lampshade, and a decent surface for a pool table – but you need a really BIG baby or the stitching causes problems.

Palin apparently has learned that there are actual provisions for advanced care planning in HR 3200, having formerly believe she was just making stuff up to disgrace all our dead men and women in the military. With her new found knowledge she decided to vomit more crap on facebook reasserting her nonsense:

[QUOTE=Craven Dropout Ex-Governor Palin]  
“Yesterday President Obama responded to my statement that Democratic health care proposals would lead to rationed care; that the sick, the elderly, and the disabled would suffer the most under such rationing; and that under such a system these ‘unproductive’ members of society could face the prospect of government bureaucrats determining whether they deserve health care,” Palin wrote in a note on her Facebook page.

“The provision that President Obama refers to is Section 1233 of HR 3200, entitled ‘Advance Care Planning Consultation.’ With all due respect, it’s misleading for the president to describe this section as an entirely voluntary provision that simply increases the information offered to Medicare recipients,” she continued.

“Section 1233 authorizes advanced care planning consultations for senior citizens on Medicare every five years, and more often ‘if there is a significant change in the health condition of the individual … or upon admission to a skilled nursing facility, a long-term care facility… or a hospice program.’"  
[/QUOTE]

How can people be so stupid? Who could possibly interpret \*authorizing payment for advanced care every 5 years or when health conditions change significantly \*as misleadingly non-voluntary?

One wonders who’s writing her Facebook entries, because that sure as heck isn’t the authentic Palin style.

Where the fuck is she getting this “unproductive” bullshit? She even put that word in quotes as though she was quoting something. What the fuck does she imagine she’s quoting?

I’m surprised she hasn`t mentioned how our maimed and disabled troops, no longer productive members of society, would be the first to be sent to the Obamachambers. That restraint alone makes is clear she’s not writing her own facebook posts.

[Palin stands by her “death panel” statement](http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5iSLR1lJ_LCoPGUAvHE_iLVlGIk_AD9A25LU80):

She is obviously trolling now.

This Death Panel shit is going to get a second set of legs. I flitted past Limbaugh’s radio show at lunch today, and in 5 minutes he must have used the term 20 times.

Not only that but, apparently, “Obama doesn’t care about anyone but himself” and he wants to personally decide the fate of every sick person in America.

I mean, fuck, who’s even got that kind of time?

Somewhere in the near future, a family is going to be sitting in an ICU waiting room agonizing over decisions they have to make for their loved one. They’re not going to have any idea what he would have wanted, because he was convinced that talking with his doctor about end-of-life care was part of a government plot to have him killed.

On that day, I hope Sarah Palin is proud of herself.

What gets me regarding Palin’s comments, is: [what the fuck does she think has been happening](http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/07102009/profile.html) with private insurance companies for decades?

She will be. She’s proud of herself every day. Because she’s fighting for the troops, and babies, and old people, good old-fashioned values. :rolleyes:
