In last blog, we commented on the health care debate. That was before the insane but predictable ” outrage ” displayed by ” regular folks ” at town hall meetings. Wow, what a show ! Of course the money behind these so-called disruptions is clear…Republican PR firms and Republican officials carrying the water, as usual, for the health insurance industry.( Think 2000 vote recount in Miami ). Tie their smears to Palin’s craziness about ” Death Panels ” and you have a perfect storm to whip up the dust and hide the real debate over our failing health care system. Read the statistics….America’s health care delivery is at the bottom of all other industrial countries in the world ! And….we spend twice as much per capita ! Palin has been, is and will always be an idiot. But her death panel charge is really on the edge of psychotic. Go to the internet and check out Palin’s endorsement of living wills and advance directives for end of life care. Now she compares the Congessional legislation on living wills and advance directives to ” death panels “. Talk about hypocrisy ! Look…could and should the Democrats have framed this debate in clearer terms. Absolutely. But it doesn’t change the fact that we are headed over the cliff if we do nothing. What do you think. Let us know. Allen
