Senior Death Warrants
The actress Natasha Richardson died after falling while
skiing in Canada. It took eight hours to drive her to
a hospital. If Canada had our healthcare she might be alive
today. We now have helicopters that would have gotten her to
the hospital in 30 minutes. Obama wants to have our
healthcare like Canada's and England's.
In England anyone over 59 cannot receive heart repairs or
stents or bypass because it is not covered as being too
expensive and not needed.
I got this today and am sending it on. If Obama's plans in
other areas don't scare you, this should.
Most of you know by now that the Senate version (at least)
of the "stimulus" bill includes provisions for extensive
rationing of healthcare for senior citizens.. The author of
this part of the bill, former senator and tax evader Tom
Daschle was credited today by Bloomberg with the following
statement.
Bloomberg: Daschle says "health-care reform will not be
pain free.
Seniors should be more accepting of the conditions that
come with age instead of treating them."
If this does not sufficiently raise your ire, just remember
that Senators and Congressmen have their own healthcare plan
that is first dollar or very low co-pay which they are
guaranteed the remainder of their lives and are not subject
to this new law if it passes.
Please use the power of the Internet to get this message
out. Talk it up at the grassroots level.... We have an
election coming up in one year and nine months. We have the
ability to address and reverse the dangerous direction the
Obama administration and it allies have begun and in the
interim, we can make their lives miserable. Lets do it! If
you disagree,
don't do anything. —David Stadler
