ObamaCARE was designed to give DEATH to any family
not tied to Congress or one of its families or brothels,
AND anyone without a Koran.
Medical care will NOT be given to anyone who doesn’t vote for and give money to Democrats.
There are two curious pieces to this story, which you don’t really get much information on.
First, if you took the lung or kidney out of an adult, and transferred it into a nine or ten or twelve year-old kid...is the success rate any less? If it is shown to be less, then we are simply wasting a valuable resource and doing this merely for PR purposes. I’m still waiting for a real medical explanation how we started this rule in the first place.
Second, the health secretary...has not been given any great magical legal powers. This is very obvious now, and I doubt that the President or the Senate desire to give such powers. So what do we have left? Judges? A judge will determine your health situation and what the medical community does or doesn’t do for you? Most of us would question that logic. But we don’t want some health secretary sitting in DC to be the ultimate choice giver either.
Dear IBD....she CAN be given adult lungs because they can cut them down....she just wasn’t on the list to get them because she’s 10 and not 12......GET IT RIGHT!
I actually can’t get too worked up over this.
Medically, Sebelius is probably correct; she probably consulted with people who told her that the difference in lung size between a child and adult or adolescent is too great and that such an operation would be unsuccessful.
Morally, I’m looking at this and thinking, these people are fervently hoping and praying for a healthy, vibrant, and alive young person to die so that their sick daughter can get a transplant. I have real problems with the attitude that strangers are no more than walking spare parts factories to be collected when one’s family member becomes ill. I just cannot support that kind of selfishness. Perhaps these people should just accept the fact that it’s their daughter’s time to go.
Anybody surprised? This is what happens when you give unlimited power to people with no morals and who believe that the end justifies the means.
Intentionally or not, the judge that ruled in favor of this little girl pulled the Administration’s bacon out of the fire.
A dying 10-year old who was denied treatment by some bureaucrat is not the face the DemonRATS want on Obamacare.
This is equating apples and oranges
The union waivers are about money
The girl’s waiver is only about life /s
Exactly what I said on a thread yesterday.
BTTT!
In a desperate move to save his daughter's life, a New Mexico district attorney (Dermot Mulroney) crosses the border to look into an illegal lung transplant. But upon arrival, he learns the truth about where these “donated” organs really come from. Diane Kruger, Sam Shepard and Rosanna Arquette co-star in this gritty examination of ethics, immigration and innocent lives from director Baltasar Kormákur.
F Obama and senellius.
Another thread for those that don’t understand the world of lung transplants.
Judicial intervention in this affair is completely inappropriate.
In order that this little girl receive new lungs someone else will NOT receive those lungs. No matter the source, someone else dies so this girl has a chance.
The transplant lists are made the way they are so recipients are fairly placed on the list. Rules are rules, and to deny someone else a lung transplant so that we can feel good about a little girl is just plain wrong.
I’m anxious to see how many liberals post their little pictures of Kathleen Sebelius with her saying ‘she can’t intervene’, like they did Rubio drinking water.
Zero! If anything, leftist rag will spin it as usual.
