Pubs are afraid that killing the mentally disbaled would cut into their base.
I can’t claim I read all bazillion pages, but did read the parts about child welfare carefully. There’s nothing like that. In fact, I feel I learned enough about the plan to state three things outright, which I did upthread. 1. There is no case where health care is completely denied to any person. 2. There is no case where the “level of productivity” (which Palin puts in quotes as if it is in the document, but it is not) is an issue, and 3. There is nothing that could be fairly called a “death panel.”
Moreover, a child with Down Syndrome is completely healthy. The “level of disability” is quite low, many people with Down Syndrome have jobs, even go to work and back by themselves, live autonomously. It’s not a regressive condition and they can have long fruitful lives. I doubt even the most draconian private insurer denies a child health insurance for that level of disability. But one thing should be clear, private insurers can flat out deny a person coverage; the public insurance plan is quite clear that nobody can be denied insurance because of a pre-existing condition.
Not to mention old people.
Somebody should ask Palin if insurance company colon tastes good. Seems like she’s in a good position to know.
What do you suppose are the qualification for getting on a Death Panel? Evil laugh? Scar running down the side of your face? Colored liquids in an Erlenmeyer flask boiling over a Bunsen burner? Is experience required?
I really want that job.
AaaaHahahaha Ahhhhhhhh HAHAHAHAHA…
jsgoddess–the difference is between (i) Obama specifically intending the death of Palin’s baby, and the death of Palin’s baby certainly happening, and (ii) a panel making the deaths of lots of people (including Palin’s baby) more likely to happen.
The title says (i) and Palin said something more like (ii).
If I underrstand this post correctly, and I think I do, it says that you like to bugger little boys behind the homeless shelter. Yep, that’s my reading of your post, can’t nobody tell me no different.
You’re a sniveling cuckold for republidick and everyone knows it. Not to mention you’re a fucking dishonest liar. No wonder she resonates with you. 
As for Palin, someone needs to punch that bitch in her tard-cannon.
I think the Obama death squads should ask people if they agree that this is a meaningful difference and if they do, conclude they are too simple minded to contribute to society and slay them.
“But wait! I was just being a disingenuous ass on a message board! I’m aware that language can be figurati… aghgghgh!!!”
It doesn’t matter because they are both self-serving, fear-mongering lies.
Umm, how about if I (iii) invite you to go pound sand, instead of either of those two? See, the courtroom-type “reasonable person” standard doesn’t strike me as a particularly (heh) reasonable bar to reach in any attempt to meet your challenge.
I’m confident that I could craft an argument that would pass muster with a reasonable SDMB Pitizen, but I don’t really see that avoiding having the likes of you call me a loser is worth the effort it would take.
You have a nice weekend, though. 
Okay, here is her quote
So you’re mad at cricetus for making stuff up? Is there any proof that Obama plans to have a “death panel” or that “productivity in society” is part of the health care bill?
She pretty clearly implied that Obama would kill her baby. How did you interpret her statement?

Right, that’s what I’m saying. What she said is stupid enough, why show yourself to be stupid too by embellishing it into something she didnt’ say?
Now now, this kind of talk unfairly impugns her motives. She might be lying for Jesus’ sake.
Everybody else seemed to get my meaning was clear, emphasizing the take-away Palin intended us to have: that Obama kills babies. You’re just trying to make this thread about you, and you’ve succeeded.
Thanks for noticing. 
Somebody explain this to me… if the media reports about Sarah Palin’s family, that’s unfair and mean, but if she uses her child as a prop to make an absurd and dishonest political argument, that’s… okay?
Are those the ones trying to kill the bill by waterboarding it?
Never mind - I am going to read the rest of the thread before I comment…
It’s not meant to be logical. It’s meant to scare the shit out of you and make you angry enough that you’ll have no problem marching down to a town hall meeting and screaming your lungs off until everyone leaves.
