Surprise, Surprise! Sarah Palin called it and here is an example of socialized medicines lovely death panels. Coming to a hopital near you!
Kent Pankow lives in Edmonton, in a province and a country that is trying to either kill him or bankrupt him. No sense mincing words.
Suffering from brain cancer, Kent Pankow was literally forced to go to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. for lifesaving surgery — at a cost to family and friends of $106,000 — after the health-care system in Alberta left him hanging in bureaucratic limbo for 16 crucial days, his tumour meanwhile migrating to an unreachable part of the brain, while it dithered over his case file, ultimately deciding he was not surgery worthy.

Code Red” - House Target List on Health Care
The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Thursday, March 18th.

Coming for you next America. Big Brother will sit in judgment of you, whether they deem you worthy of medical care or whether you will be shipped off to a Hospice Center to await your end. I vote that the first Big Brother Hospice Center be named for Nancy Pelosi. The 21st Century “Liberal Camps.”
Remember Terri Shivo.................
Sarah’s right in more ways than once.
Yes.
“We should consider laws that permit next of kin to decide to forgo life sustaining medical interventions even when a patient’s wishes are not known,” said George Soros in a speech of November 30, 1994, delivered at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center.
In that speech, Soros announced the launch of his Project on Death in America, a program designed to steer U.S. medicine toward a rationing system whereby only the fit received proper care, while the unfit – such as Terri Schiavo – were written off and allowed to die. In the same speech, Soros said:
“Can we afford to care for the dying properly? The number of people dying in the United States currently stands at 2.2 million annually. Increases in cancer and AIDS deaths and the aging of the baby boomers will cause this figure to climb faster than the population… The fear is that the dying of the elderly will drain the national treasury. … Aggressive, life-prolonging interventions… are much more expensive than proper care for the dying.”
Over the next ten years, Soros’ Open Society Institute and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation poured $200 million into Project on Death in America.
Remember that it only took $140 million for Soros and his fellow Pewgate conspirators to bamboozle Americans into surrendering their precious right of free political speech, via the McCain-Feingold Act of 2002 (see “Pewgate: The Battle of the Blogosphere.”) How much more could they buy with $200 million?
The change in the legal and medical climate which paved the way for Terri Schiavo’s bureaucratic murder arose directly from the work of Soros’ Project on Death in America.

THE ECONOMICS OF EUTHANASIA
Health Care for Aging Babyboomers Will Bankrupt USA, Says Greenspan
Over the next twenty-five years, 76 million babyboomers will reach retirement age. Many elite policymakers warn that the only way to prevent the cost of their health care from bankrupting the nation will be to “ration” medical care — or, to put it another way, to withhold needed care from tens of millions of aging babyboomers and simply allow them to die.
Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan warned of the coming health care crisis at a Senate Budget Committee hearing on Thursday. In reference to what he called the “long-running problems that loom as the nation’s baby boomers begin to claim Social Security and Medicare benefits,” Mr. Greenspan said:
“I fear that we may have already committed more physical resources to the baby boom generation in its retirement years than our economy has the capacity to deliver. I do not see how we can avoid significant curtailment of the benefits currently promised.”
Hillary Clinton attempted to address this problem in her 1993 health-care plan — commonly dubbed “HillaryCare” — which would have given the U.S. government the power to decide who lives and who dies (see “A Guide to the Clinton Health Plan” by Robert E. Moffit, Heritage Foundation, November 19, 1993).
When the American people rejected HillaryCare — Democrats finally abandoned the plan in August 1994 — George Soros picked up the ball, creating the so-called Project on Death in America, whose practical effect was to implement HillaryCare through the private sector, by training and indoctrinating medical professionals to begin a quiet program of rationing on their own initiative (see “Soros and Schiavo,” March 26, 2005).
UPDATE 04.25.05: LifeTree.org provides a detailed timeline, with many links, showing exactly how Soros’ Project on Death contributed to the change in legal and medical policies that sent Terri Schiavo to her grave.

Congressional Dems on Twitter

And here are toll-free numbers we can use to call any Senators or Reps.
At the first number below you must wait through a tape recording urging you to tell your Rep or Senator to vote “yes” for the health care bill. Just hang on and when the recording is over, you will get the Capitol operator. Just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Then you will either talk to an aid or have the chance to leave a message for him/her to vote NO on the health care bill.
When you use the second number and the Capitol operator comes on, just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Every time I use this number I get the Rep or Senator’s answer machine, so it may be set up that way all the time...to go to their answer machine. Either way you can leave a message to vote NO on the health care bill!
We need to use these toll free numbers that have been set up for the health care/ BO supporters and illegals to use! After all they are FREE
