Grassley's jumping on the deather bandwagon as well.

Tell me again why Dems need his support for a bill?

Two faced liar! I bet you wouldn't say that shit in an interview with Essence magazine.

With his party spending all their time getting the racists all worked up, I'm suprised that Steele is out there saying anything.

Steele and his fellow traitors have learned that today's "liberal media" will never fact-check you or call you on an obvious fabrication... or, indeed, engage in any of what used to be called "investigative journalism".

But why would they? That stuff is so expensive, and it can ruin the kinds of friendships that guarantee your network "access", not to mention advertising...

Our society is broken. There is literally no mainstream outlet by which the average American can get any good information... and half the populace doesn't even know what "good information" means, so convinced are they that convictions derive from passion rather than fact.

Obama is wasting time. I know you all agree, but as long as the GOP has the airwaves, we're all in trouble. He should have a town hall every day between now and August 24 (and he should cancel that trip to the Vineyard, too). But, my hunch is that he thinks guys like Baucus, Nelson and others will line up. He's wrong. He better have a lot more than three town halls - or we're all in trouble.

You can't give wingnuts unfettered access to the airwaves and then complain when the press covers their assertions and you're out holding teas for Sotomayor.

Is it just me or do the Dems chances improve every time he opens his mouth?

I know we've all gotten so cynical that we think this is funny. And it would be if it weren't so damn serious. There's only two parties in this country folks and the head of one of them just signed on to support a patently false conspiracy theory. How do we run a country with the opposition party engaging in completely dishonest debate? Are they completely incapable and unwilling to use their own ideas about why they think this is a bad idea that they need to resort to making shit up?!?! And these folks are given oodles of airtime to spout their nonsense is terrifying.

So take a step back and see what it says that the freakin' head of the Republican Party just got on national television and knowingly promoted a deceiptfully-fabricated, fear-mongering conspiracy theory. I thought I was realistic about things these days but clearly I have more to wake up to.

That whirring sound you just heard is the sound of Dwight Eisenhower spinning in his grave.

"Onerous information"?, like every breath this guy breathes....this guy isn't even trying to look like he just got a reach around from Neil during the 5 minute commercial break earlier sponsored by their favorite insurance companies. I mean, i love watchin Sarah Palin servin up hotdogs in the background,..that's the sexiest thing Fox has had on all day but characterizing Health Consulting as Hitler's Death Panels, that's not news Neil,...that's Stupid.

So if the GOP succeeds in defeating health reform AGAIN, do they run in 2010 & 2012 as being the party that defeated your access to more affordable health care for more people??

Steele means that this is perfectly appropriate if your not the other 85% of the country whom knows it's total BS. Also, if I remember correctly, doesn't Steele still have some shady money issues of his own concerning diverting campaign funds to his family? That would explain his other faux paranoia.
Not to worry though he'll be beating a different dead horse soon. (not a reference to Sarah)

The GOP is very good at projection and Grassley's repeating this bullshit shows the importance of bipartisanship.

Dear Sarah Palin; The Death Panel Already Exists, and People Have Already Been Judged, an open letter.

On May 30, 1996 Linda Peeno testified before congress that she was responsible for the death of a man by denying him life saving care. She testified that no one held her accountable, and instead, she was rewarded with a six figure raise.

How dare you Mrs. Palin, how dare you accuse a possible solution to this problem with the monstrously sick crime that is already taking place. Everyday your fellow Americans are being put before panels that will decide their fate. Only they never get to see the faces of the people that hold their fate, and they get no appeals. They are powerless, vulnerable, and they need our help. They are, our neighbors, our friends, our lovers, and our children, and we the people, that are stuck in this broken system demand to be given a way out. Obama promised us change to a broken health care system, and we yelled, cheered, and with the power of our vote put, not only him, but his entire party into majority power status. They know what we want, they know that we put them there, and they know we can replace them. They answer to us, we the people.

However you are lucky, or rather your son is. If tragedy should take you, and your husband away from this world, and from Trig, he would be taken care of. His food, shelter, cloths, and medical expenses would all become covered under social security, and medicare. He would most likely spend the rest of his life in a group home with people much like himself, and a 24 hour nursing staff who will not only take care of him, but will spend time with him, play with him, and laugh with him. Social security is the safety net for all people like Trig, and it is a government run, publicly funded, system that has lasted 74 years. Would a private, or public enterprise whose sole purpose is to make a profit take care of Trig? Or would they put him before a panel? I think we both know the answer to that question. So why are you advocating in favor of the panel for so many of your fellow Americans?
