"What happened in Germany was that they could not afford health-care for all," warns Beck.
And Zero will use the same excuse in America.

Wesley J. Smith
Terri Schiavos father, Robert Schindler, died last night of apparent heart failure at the age of 72. His health was broken by the ordeal of trying to save his daughters life and he never fully recovered from the horror of watching her dehydrate to death. The family is grieving.
Letters of condolence can be sent to: Terri Schindler Schiavo Foundation, 5562 Central Avenue ~ Suite 2 St. Petersburg, FL 33707

Remember the liberal activist who was on television criticizing Sarah Palin because she didn’t have the good sense to abort her ‘retarded’ child? They can’t tell us they’re not supportive of eugenic atrocities!
Down with steven hawkings!what has he ever done productive.
NewRepublic: America’s Future was the title of Glenn Beck’s series. The word ‘Future’ slanted downward in the graphic that entitled all his special series.
I think the reference to a “New Republic” was meant as an affront to Obama’s inner circle and the crap he has around him that have not been vetted by the CIA or the FBI.
Sounds right.
I wonder when we will start seeing the "czars" referred to as "fuhrers".
My FIL was born in 1944 Germany, premature (2-3 months). His mom took him to the hospital where they said it was not worth the resources to help him since there was so little chance he would survive anyway. They were sent home. Luckily, she didn’t give up. He just turned 65 this past June.
Wow! That is an incredible story.
My youngest brother was 2 and a half months premature when he was born. The doctors didn’t think he would live and thought that if he did he would be small and weak his whole life. By the time he was a senior in high school he was a nationally ranked cross-country track runner, he went into the Army after college and completed Ranger school (though he was never able to be a Ranger due to a subsequent injury).
My hubby interviewed his Opa in the mid 80’s for an AP history class. He asks many questions about Hitler, the times, why people didn’t stop him, Weimer Republic, etc. He was 10 or so during WW1, so the history account is informative to say the least. It is an amazing video although many people can’t understand the thick accent.
I am glad that your brother got to prove the doctors wrong. I pray that babies will be able to do that forever and not have some government mandate that forbids it.
We thank your brother for his service.
I saw a news bit on Teddy Kennedy’s brain cancer that explained that the life expectancy was extremely low for people with his condition. And the expensive procedures he had to prolong his life by one year had a very poor prognosis, statistically. Under Obamacare, Kennedy would never have received his expensive life extending procedures.
I wish Sarah Palin and others in the spotlight would point this out.
Having a son (30yrs now) with the most severe form of CP (yet brilliant) who is dependent on a trach/mist/o2/feeding tube and other medical care.
I have designed a self how to program for him if this type of selective health care is passed.
We were trained by the best Stanford U ect in grants to communicate (I am his interperator 30yr now) and all his daily care is about hygiene and other things I can do and have done on my own at home.
Docs (God Bless them) have taught me to do (over the years) procedures and tricks of their trade that would normally require day surg or if not done ended his life due.
So I WILL be able allow my son to live albiet without the medical equip and meds ect it would mean his care would take all day as opposes to 4-5 shifts it requires now and he would be less able do to time restraints to go to all his outside of home social events.
But Yes we Will survive.
Before having private ins. back when he was an infant -6yrs I did this kind of care and I just talked to a woman who lost her CP brother in Mexico due to a stomach issue had I met her a year ago I could have gave her Mom some tricks that awesome Docs have taught me.
The other thing I am trying to find out if is fact/fiction is Ezekial Emmanual is claiming to have sister with CP (dont know how severe) so that is suppose to prove he would not have the intent with his ethics to allow the disbaled to die off.
A freeper said that there is no sister in the Emmanual family.
Can anyone verify this?
My point being for those who have severely physically disabled loved ones the Govt Health plan (God willing it will tank before getting lift off) should not be fearful that thier life is going to be ended by the Govt it means you will have to sacrafice enormously and selflessly as God aims us all to do to care for that loved one.
