IBTZ!!

We don’t need the government instructing us on how to ‘evaluate’ our lives and we are not going to stand by while Obama encourages our veterans to die!!

BUZZ OFF!

One to bookmark that’s for sure. Thank you.

Speaking of letters, my Mom still has all the letters my Dad wrote to her when he was flying the F-105 in Vietnam. We have talked about the letters and we haven’t decided if we are going to bury the letters with my parents or read them after they are gone. Hopefully we won’t have to make a decision any time soon.

Take care.

Yes, it certainly is sick, 444. Sarah Palin needs to get a copy of this information. I know this would not go over well with her, at all.

Joined after the election, did you? Tell me, is that 1099 or W-2? Are you in Chicago, D.C. or telecommuting? What does that pay, or are you allowed to say? Is there a cafeteria? A cappuccino machine? Health food?

Good question...where are these so called ‘studies’?

This is just a cold and calculated way for the government to ‘cut costs’ so that they can spend our money on even more government programs and social engineering! The whole thing is sickening. Especially the ‘questionaire’. It is not the government’s business to determine or help determine ‘quality of life’ issues for anyone....much else healthcare decisions!

And don’t you just love the fact that Obama and the democrats are trying to guilt our veterans into dying....while at the same time ordering private jets for themselves and going on lavish vacations on our tax dollars!!

PATHETIC!!

I have never seen a health care directive which discusses a person deciding whether they feel they are a burden.

Health care directives can be made, but they are not usually directed in this fashion, in fact, I’ve never seen anything like this before and I presently have power of attorney and assisted with my father before he passed away. Please direct me to any directives that you are familiar with that is similar to this.

These forms are being used at the VA, not at hospice.

This is completely out of line to soldiers who have given so much for their country.

For the VA. I have viisted my VA several times and had surgery several times and in all times I’ve told them I did not have a living will and did not want to make one and that was the end. however, if the veteran qualifies for treatment, why would he/she consider the cost of the treatment on his family (He paid for the treatment with his service).

A patient may have otehr concerns, but medical treatment should not be unless Obama plans to make the veterans go on his public option.
