Well, if he’s opposed to it then, maybe there’s hope that it won’t get passed after all.

I knew someone who went from well to dead in 3 weeks on an end of life order. Elderly yes, but had been in good health, was a retiree on a full pension, son of a Dr and father of 2 more. Morphine & dehydration.

Great hospice care center, but the result was that he was killed. It was terrible. Absolutely terrible. I was horrified. And this was how important the Terri case was to what is going on now. See Soros’ Project on Death in America:

Get yourselves a Will to Live document and never reveal if you know someone, especially elderly, with a ‘living will.’

Apologies if you are already familiar with this.

It’s posted on Twitter, which has a character limit for each message. I don’t like text speak either, but I’ll make an exception in this case.

Meanwhile, what he’s writing is absolutely terrifying to read, so frankly I don’t care if it’s in text speak.

It's worse than you can possibly imagine. Somehow, it manages to be Singer on steroids. Who wrote this bill. It has Singer's footprints all over it.

Looking at it more carefully, yeah if he did have something to do with it, it doesn't look like he's opposed to it. If he is, that's a good thing, maybe. If it's too radical for him even.....

We all need to write a letter to the editor, and while we can’t mention everything in the OP, let’s at least mention a few.

Yep. Who could have thought they would overreach this far? Yet no ads on TV yet blasting this crap.

No, you are correct, this bill gives them control of EVERYTHING. Because everything can be a health hazard, and since they will be paying for your healthcare, they can control every aspect of our lives, including whether or not people GET TO LIVE AT ALL.

It is war......blood sweat and tears literally.....war on the sick, war on our doctors, war on every American who will be subject to this Soviet style heatlhcare system.

We will be fortunate if our children and grandchildren grow up without total fear of their hospitals and government healthcare workers as they did in the old USSR should this anti-American, anti-life, anti-freedom disaster get passed into law.

STOP IT NOW! GET ACTIVE! AND DO THE SAME FOR TAX AND TRADE!

But the reds now in power don't have the force to apply that they think they do, and the contrary tendencies (real Americans) may turn out to be more powerful than this rabble in power can imagine.

I think you're right. For the first time since the election I'm feeling optomistic.

Ostammer is the LAST person I would listen to about anything, and I resent your remark.

I do not have the time to read a 1,000 page bill. But if somebody has, and they purport to explain it, then let them do so in acceptable English, not teenager code.

I believe you. All I have to do is consider the source. Nothing coming from ostammer, his administration or HIS congress is good. It’s all bad. But if I was in congress, I would read the bills and/or have my staff share the work and then I would comment on them vociferously to the public so that the people of this country know the details of what he’s up to. I would scrutinize and expose everything they’re doing and would object to it and rally congressional support against the bills, meaning all or nearly all of them.

I appreciate your effort. I just can’t understand most of what you’ve said. I get a sense of some of it, and it’s all bad, but I already knew it would be.

What is that green flag, pray tell?

It looks like a seagull about to dive-bomb an unsuspecting tourist with a "bird turd".

The Horn and Hoof Flag described in the book
appears to be based on the hammer and sickle.

PG 65 Sec 164 is a payoff subsidized plan 4 retirees and their families in Unions & community orgs (ACORN).
of all the horrible stuff-special treatment for unions. well screw them and screw the people that wrote this piece of horse manure. This is protecting a special interest democratic voting alliance. my blood boils.
if nothing else can turn the 80 plus percent of the working force against this,nothing will.
