White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel's brother, a physician, appointed to Obama health care job admits killing old people is the only way to cut costs!
DEADLY DOCTORS O ADVISERS WANT TO RATION CARE By BETSY MCCAUGHEY New York Post July 24, 2009"Communitarianism?" Sounds like ?Emanuel: Believes in withholding care from elderly for greater good. THE health bills coming out of Congress would put the decisions about your care in the hands of presidential appointees. They'd decide what plans cover, how much leeway your doctor will have and what seniors get under Medicare.
Yet at least two of President Obama's top health advisers should never be trusted with that power.
Start with Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, the brother of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. He has already been appointed to two key positions: health-policy adviser at the Office of Management and Budget and a member of Federal Council on Comparative Effectiveness Research.
Emanuel bluntly admits that the cuts will not be pain-free. "Vague promises of savings from cutting waste, enhancing prevention and wellness, installing electronic medical records and improving quality are merely 'lipstick' cost control, more for show and public relations than for true change," he wrote last year (Health Affairs Feb. 27, 2008).
Savings, he writes, will require changing how doctors think about their patients: Doctors take the Hippocratic Oath too seriously, "as an imperative to do everything for the patient regardless of the cost or effects on others" (Journal of the American Medical Association, June 18, 2008). Yes, that's what patients want their doctors to do. But Emanuel wants doctors to look beyond the needs of their patients and consider social justice, such as whether the money could be better spent on somebody else.
Many doctors are horrified by this notion; they'll tell you that a doctor's job is to achieve social justice one patient at a time. Emanuel, however, believes that "communitarianism" should guide decisions on who gets care. He says medical care should be reserved for the non-disabled, not given to those "who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens . . . An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia" (Hastings Center Report, Nov.-Dec. '96). Translation: Don't give much care to a grandmother with Parkinson's or a child with cerebral palsy.
He explicitly defends discrimination against older patients: "Unlike allocation by sex or race, allocation by age is not invidious discrimination; every person lives through different life stages rather than being a single age. Even if 25-year-olds receive priority over 65-year-olds, everyone who is 65 years now was previously 25 years" (Lancet, Jan. 31).

Here is a link to the full House Democrat Health Care Plan in PDF. In Section 1233 E & F, pages 426-433, you find the part about mandatory end-of-life counseling for anyone over 65 years of age. A lot more provisions now being documented at that site.

Also, here's a large image of the Democratic (Obama) Health Plan chart-another Obama empty promise. This is the one the House democrats are censuring. Email these links or the image to everyone you know.

Obama and all those pushing his radical agenda are abject marxist ideologues. Their "fundamental; change" is nothing more than a destruction of the American free market and fundamental republican principle.

The Soylent Green Solution. Obama Die Fast Health Plan.
The problem with this guy he thinks he is excluded.
Obama: “Yes, but we don’t need them.”
Zer0 and the ‘RAT Party = Throw Grandma under the bus.
I have to wonder what someone like a Stephen Hawking would say about this.
Never in my lifetime did I think advice and representation in DC would descend into the darkness of this evil.
Anyone who thinks the Terri case was not about this is deluded. She was the precedent.
Darwinists have the state religion of Gaia/GW. The Democrat worship the State. The pro-choice throw their babies into the fires of Molloch.
All that travertine. All that blood on their hands. How dare they. How dare they profane the foundations of these United States.
So. The FEMA coffins will be used after all. Now, what will be constructed on the camp sites? Crematoria for all the dead who die too soon and too many for cemetaries?
Note to self and others: funeral people is a growth industry.
“The horror. The horror.” (Brando, “Apocalypse Now”)
Hey “Dr” Zeke, it is my professional opinion that you should go f**k yourself.
“Throw Grandma under the bus.”
The elderly, the infirm, the seriously ill, the disabled. HIV/AIDS.
The Democrat are the Party of Death.
I watched Soylent Green on TCM tonight.I so much wanted to label that awful hospital “ObamaCare Clinic”.
“Late term abortions”
Health care will be limited the elderly and I guarantee you that eventually newborns who are born with health problems and older children and adults who eventually develop long lasting, serious health problems will eventually be denied health care as well.
Its not health care - its GENOCIDE!
The frog in the pot of water will yet again have the temperature turned up again and again!
GENOCIDE!
FDR, Helen Keller, Lord Byron, Beethoven, John F Kennedy,
John Mellencamp, Hank Williams Sr, and Michael J Fox are or would have been on the short list.

Obama Says A Baby Is A Punishment
Obama: If they make a mistake, I dont want them punished with a baby.
I wonder if Obama has a copy of Mein Kamph on his bedside end table—it appears that everything that he proposes is from that book. This guy is scary.
O thinks tonsilectomies are unnecessary

"...The poster argued in so many words that the care of each "undesirable" cost the "undue burden" of 60,000 marks of German taxpayer money over the patients lifetime, and that a publication called the New Folk contained a better - indeed, a "final" - solution to the difficulty."
government employees are exempt from being equal ya know
Yeah, like he’s a doctor. He needs to go.
This is Soylent Green
I agree. Mine will get a copy. Much good that will do.
After being forced to submit to “end-of-life” brain-washing sessions from age 65, there will probably be very few who make it to 75....except for the “indispensable” Democrat politicians, of course. Specimens such as Ted Kennedy and Robert Byrd will be exempt.
As seniors do "the right thing we'll do just fine."
AARP To Lower Age Limit
Best for bottom line. "We fully support less expensive palliative care," says AARP spokesman.
My God (and I don’t say that in vain), this is history repeating itself. Father in Heaven help us all...

The 0bamunists are trying to ‘fix’ healthcare AND the pending Social Security meltdown in the same pogrom.
Too many old folks? Too many infirm folks with no hope of improvement? Simple... Control their access to treatments and care. They’ll die quicker. VOILA! Fewer people drawing SocSec.
Problem solved...
It’s time to take back the country.
Where is the part of the bill that says to withhold care from the disabled? After all “we” don’t need them either. Or at least the demoncrats don’t.
Isn’t it ironic that a democrat president is emulating hitler’s final solution when another democrat president fought to destroy hitler? And all the while accusing anyone who disagrees with them of being nazi’s.
Nazi is the german anachromym for National Socialists Workers Party. Heil ozero.
HIV/AIDS? You are talking about a protected class there. That will never be rationed.
Seriously, the problem with "end-of-life" care decisions is that a lot of care can be end-of-life care if you deny it. Juvenile cancer treatment, a new born that needs a respirator, a 50 year old that need a heart bypass. All you have to do is make the waiting list long enough. Once you start making those decisions where do you stop. The answer is that you don't.
My grandfather had a bypass/valve replacement done when he was 75. Pretty sketchy, but he lived 4 more years before being felled by cancer. A lot of his health issues were due to war wounds from WWII. His legs were all messed up and he wore two different sized shoes. When they start rationing care to guys like him they will basically saying 'thanks for all the work, paying taxes, bleeding for your country, but we don't need you anymore.'
I don't want to live in a country like that.
Hey, isn’t teddy kennedy a candiate? He could be put in an oldsmobile and shoved off a bridge into a river somewhere in mass. What the hell, good for the goose.....
Planned Grandparenthood Clinics
I pray to God that OBAMA gets his just desserts soon.
Its amazing how much of ALL the individual programs and efforts of these leftists dovetail with each other with an underlying agenda linking them all. From the Weatherman links to -9bama, and their touting the need to kill of 25 million... and that was many years ago. Hollywood preparing us to die by the millions in disasters (saw a preview today of an ameggedden type movie, to come out later in the summer). Helping in various ways nuke seeking whackjobs in Iran, NK... that constantly state the desire to wipe out Israel and South Korea. Then there is abortion... and this health care government-run euthenasia they are pushing. Destroying the economy is linked in too... perhaps indirectly, but it does raise unemployment while fanning flames of racism at the same time...
We NEED 2010, and need it now!
Of course she was. I hope those who didn't get it then are starting to get it now.
I suggest you add these up. THe word ‘disabled’ is not used, but, it’s there.........

Read the Zeke Emanuel ‘Mengele’ principles for yourself:
Treating people equally
1. Lottery
Hard to corrupt; little information about recipients needed, Ignores other relevant principles
Military draft; schools; vaccination
Include
2. First-come, first-served
Protects existing doctor-patient relationships; little information about recipients needed, Favours wealthy, powerful, and well-connected; ignores other relevant principles
ICU beds; part of organ allocation
Exclude
Favouring the worst-off : prioritarianism
3. Sickest first
Aids those who are suffering right now; appeals to rule of rescue; makes sense in temporary scarcity; proxy for being worst off overall, Surreptitious use of prognosis; ignores needs of those who will become sick in future; might falsely assume temporary scarcity; leads to people receiving interventions only after prognosis deteriorates; ignores other relevant principles
Emergency rooms; part of organ allocation
Exclude
4. Youngest first
Benefits those who have had least life; prudent planners have an interest in living to old age
Undesirable priority to infants over adolescents and young adults; ignores other relevant principles, New NVAC/ACIP pandemic flu vaccine proposal
Include
Maximising total benefits: utilitarianism
5. Number of lives saved
Saves more lives, benefiting the greatest number; avoids need for comparative judgments about quality or other aspects of lives Ignores other relevant principles
Past ACIP/NVAC pandemic flu vaccine policy; bioterrorism response policy; disaster triage
Include
6. Prognosis or life-years saved
Maximises life-years produced Ignores other relevant principles, particularly distributive Principles
Penicillin allocation; traditional military triage (prognosis) and disaster triage (life-years saved)
Include
Promoting and rewarding social usefulness
7. Instrumental value
Helps promote other important values; future oriented, Vulnerable to abuse through choice of prioritized occupations or activities; can direct health resources away from health needs
Past and current NVAC/ACIP, pandemic fl u vaccine policy
Include — but only in some public health emergencies
8. Reciprocity
Rewards those who implemented important values; past oriented, Vulnerable to abuse; can direct health resources away from health needs; intrusive assessment process
Some organ donation policies
Include — only irreplaceable people who have suffered serious losses
By contrast, the complete lives system combines four morally relevant principles: youngest-fi rst, prognosis, lottery, and saving the most lives. In pandemic situations, it also allocates scarce interventions to people instrumental in realising these four principles. Importantly, it is not an algorithm, but a framework that expresses widely affirmed values: priority to the worst-off , maximising benefits, and treating people equally. To achieve a just allocation of scarce medical interventions, society must embrace the challenge of implementing a coherent multiprinciple framework rather than relying on simple principles or retreating to the status quo.

When Grandma won't die soon enough, the bus is no longer the mode of transport.
These fiends are truly unbelievable.
Giant ovens will make it complete.
Well said. and I like your tagline.
“The 0bamunists are trying to fix healthcare AND the pending Social Security meltdown in the same pogrom.
Too many old folks? Too many infirm folks with no hope of improvement? Simple... Control their access to treatments and care. Theyll die quicker. VOILA! Fewer people drawing SocSec.
Problem solved...”
EXACTLY! That’s where the “savings” will come from. And the age of people who are affected can be lowered depending upon whether there is a “budget crisis.” Anyone approaching age 55 or older should be calling their congressmen and Senators telling them to vote NO to Obamacare!
Isn’t this just another way of saying “forced euthanasia”. In other words: kill off the old people, the brain-dead, the bedridden, the paralyzed, the ones with dementia and Alzheimer’s, and such and such?
Tnx. I’ve had a lot of them. My first was ‘not to be Schiavoed, Greered or Felosed.’
Over the course of the last couple of weeks, there really is no other choice now. I also worked hard on my profile, which I have now changed, too.
Great compliment from an FR 98 class member.
