OK, I've had it. I expect the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity to lie through their teeth about just about anything, but this takes the cake. Lying to old people about end-of-life decisions to scare them? Because God forbid the Obama administration should get a victory like much-needed health care reform! This isn't about whether or not we need health care reform -- everybody from the AARP to the AMA to the pharmaceutical industry agrees we must have it or risk our entire economy eventually collapsing -- this is about politics and the 2010 elections!
The right-wing is so pissed that we have a Democrat in the White House and a majority in both houses of Congress that they are willing to do something so heinous and disturbing as to make stuff up to scare the elderly. Limbaugh, Hannity, Boehner and everybody else pushing this nonsense should be ashamed of themselves. I'm ashamed that these people call themselves Americans.
I'll let an article on HuffPo by Bob Cesca do the rest of the talking:
