The individual must be sacrificed for the collectivity!

Communism 101.

The day will come, sooner than later, when a parent is told that their child does not qualify for a life saving operation and the parent is going to go postal. We are being ruled, not governed.

And only we can change that.

So the National Organ program (non government) is not the ultimate authority and no longer sets the criteria for who does and does not qualify for the donor list? My husband had a heart transplant three years ago, he was sixty-four, but his overall health was excellent, weight perfect and no underlying medical issues. His heart was dying, he was graded A1 emergency status and received a heart in less than two weeks. If Sibelius was making the call, she would have seen he was a lifelong registered Republican and I am sure the perfect heart for him would have gone to a liberal. Incidentally, the fellow in the room next to him was fifty nine. He was dying and received a heart from a seventeen year old donor who was hit on his bike by a truck. The height, weight, size of organ must be similiar between donor and recipient.......not age.

If this is true.......this is huge. It will make the IRS scandal look fair. The government will discriminate as to who lives and who dies. It will no longer be decided on the basis of doctors recommendations and the strictly governed requirements set by the National database which is based on emergency need and an entire host of other requirements, but what political party you belong to.

This is only the beginning. I expect that Obamacare will hit NICU facilities very hard as many of these high risk infants rack up huge medical bills. Imagine being the parents of a high risk newborn and being told there will be no care for your baby because of federal policy.

Hearing her comments, I was struck by the absolute flat affect of her voice, one totally without any notion of human animation or emotion. How revealing. Forrest Gump would have provided more inflection.

She’s completely soulless. A perfect fit for the administration.
