At first, I thought it was Jocelyn Elders coming back with her infamous comment about “Everybody’s got to die of something”

He’s right. People do die everyday. Too bad he isn’t one of them.

Senate Democrats are on the warpath against the Redskins.

Death panels followed by extermination of “useless eaters”, like the Nazis did long before war broke out.

Reeducation camps for the ideologically recalcitrant, for later use as death camps. It’s all been done, the methods are available for study & for update. Previously it was accomplished using technology now seventy five years old.

Read Hannah Arendt’s “The Banality of Evil” for the mindset required to carry out the above. Easily obtained in large numbers in any society then, and now.

'People die every day'

Yeah, especially when they don't get the care they need.

Would it be wrong for me to suspect that Comrade Bernie,like Osama Obama himself,has never worn a set of dog tags?

Transplant New Yorker commie ba$tard. Elected by more transplant commies in Burlington. Single payer moron, I’m sure he would gladly be the one to tell you you’re not eligible for cancer treatment.

Oh, well, then Bernie will be stepping up to the head of the line, right?

When will it be commie Bernie’s time to die? Can’t be soon enough. Evil, ugly man...so very PROUD to be a known communist in the US Senate! Who keeps voting for this POS? Other commies/socialists/marxists?

Thank you for your reply.

My brother was a “statistic” in the VietNam war. He was just one of those people that die “every day”.

I (later joined the USMC) served with some of those other people that died “every day. Thank you for the recall of “dignity” and “due diligence”.

I always go back to this:

No man is an island,
Entire of itself,
Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thy friend’s
Or of thine own were:
Any man’s death diminishes me,
Because I am involved in mankind,
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee.

John Donne

Sincerely,
HippyLoggerBiker

Initially they denied that there was any death panel in healthcare reform. When it becomes obvious to everyone that there is a death panel, their answer would be that “people die every day.”
