Death panels? Seriously? We debunked all of that goofiness last week in the posts. You do realize that the "death panel" amendment that you all got all worked up over was proposed by a Republican right? If you'd read the amendment, before it was yanked from the bill by the Republican, you'd have been able to comprehend that it dealt with living wills and what family member would be the proxy if a person was incapacitated. It also BLOCKED FUNDING for sessions if they included any talk of suicide or assisted suicide.

You do understand what BLOCKED FUNDING means right?
you debunked nothing and the death panel the dems talk about is not the death panel that exists in the house bill....

the fact is, the bill provides for a government appointed group to decide what health care options are availble. It is the RATIONING that will be done by this bill that matters and that IS the "death panel"
