Fox's death book lie

[Meister]

or having the government run it
and have to deal with some unknown idiot in washington DC tell you what you get

goes without saying...

somehow 1/20 changed the leftists into thinking spending more and more of what we don't have is a great idea.. I miss the days when they were shouting "This administration is spending us into the poor house!", etc...

DITTO--The CBO comes out tomorrow & it looks like Obama's spending has cost us another 2 TRILLION over his estimate.

The economy is not getting better--it's getting worse.

When will these big spending liberals realise that massive government spending does not create private sector job growth?

I'm just waiting for this mid term election
I am really hoping that the thinking Americans will stand up and be heard as much as they did in these town hall meetings. I know the Indepedents are really abandoning Obama, and his poltics.

What kind of question is that Emma, it has paid it's share of proceedures, tests, and surgeries, just like it's suppose to do...no questions asked, and I'm a cancer survivor.
What does it do for me?....It gives me security

I'm sure the libs will attempt to spin it into some god-like performance for Bary Zero's administration....

after some here posting history of past administration and what Obama has been doing, they have only exposed themselves as absolute idiots that will play the "My Team is better than your Team" over what is best for this country. Either that or they want to throw out our Constitution and could give a shit.

Any report by the DailyKos is totally irrelevant. The site is only visited by the k00ks..........perhaps 5% of the voting public. So nobody cares.
Meanwhile.........month by month, Fox cleans the clocks of the other cable news outlets and has now passed some network news outlets FTW!! Independents are flocking to Fox in droves. Meanwhile, shows like "Countdown" with that k00k host have lost 1/2 a million viewers since 10/08........a fcukking goof by anybody's standard.

Wrong Book Emma.

Have a link to another? Strange they'd have the same name tho'. Seems that would be a copyright infringement. Or something.

Would you be open to paying less for it? Just asking...

Not at the expense of my fellow taxpayers...

I think 98% being benefited by the top 2% is a fair exchange. Especially considering the bush tax cuts that benefited those same 2% for years.


Agree?

Fox's "death book" lie
by Jed Lewison


Mon Aug 24, 2009 at 0803 AM PDT

The deathers at Fox "News" have been caught with their pants down, once again.

This time -- led by Chris Wallace of Fox "News" Sunday -- Fox is alleging that President Obama is trying to prematurely end the lives of millions of veterans by forcing them to read a "death book" that urges them to "pull the plug" and commit "assisted suicide."

Not surprisingly, it turns out that Fox's attack is totally made up. Their so-called "death book" is actually an optional guidebook on drafting living wills that had been listed in a Veterans Health Administration (VHA) handbook by the Bush administration in 2007.



Here's more detail on the garbage being spewed by Fox:

1. Fox's alleged "death book" is actually a guidebook on preparing living wills

The thing Fox is calling a "death book" is actually a guidebook called "Your life, your choices" initially developed in 1997 to help veterans understand issues relating to advance directives and living wills should they ever experience a medical condition (such as a permanent coma) where they cannot communicate their treatment preferences. Although the guidebook can be downloaded, it carries a disclaimer noting that is currently being updated and revised for a 2010 release. (See this article for more information on the revisions.)

Despite Fox's claim that the guide encourages assisted suicide and euthanasia, it is solely focused on helping veterans determine what type of care they wish to receive if they should ever became incapable of making their wishes known. The guidebook specifically makes clear that it has nothing to do with assisted suicide, which is illegal.

2. Although Fox said VHA practitioners must give the guidebook to each of the 24 million vets they serve, there is no such requirement

According to a directive issued in 2007 under President Bush, the guidebook is merely an example of the type of document that VHA practitioners should give to patients who ask for help with living wills.

3. The Bush administration, not the Obama administration, included the guidebook in the VHA handbook.

In February 2007 the Bush administration's VA issued a directive listing the guidebook as an example of the type of documents VHA practitioners should give to patients who want help drafting living wills. In July 2009, the Obama administration issued a minor update to portions of that directive, but did not language on the guidebook at all.

Here's a comparison of the language contained in the Bush directive of February 2007 and the Obama update of July 2009. <more>

So Then Bush is a total doucebag too for letting this booklet be distributed.

Have you read it yet? IF you READ THE PAMPHLET it backs up what chris wallace said.

Here just in case you didn't actually reasearch this yourself and just ran with the dailyKos talking points.
http://www.rihlp.org/pubs/Your_life_your_choices.pdf

You can skip up to the main point of contention on page 21 but if you dont read the previous pages you miss the context which chris wallace was talking about.

Or just keep on keeping on with those talking points....its up to you.

Agree?

No, I don't agree with your idea of socialism as a "fair" concept... Thankfully, most Americans don't agree with it either... Sure, there are some brain-dead, feces-flinging folks who think it's a wonderful idea, but they're only to be laughed at...

only if you are the 2% we start taking from?
hows that sound

 

[Darkwind]

Why do conservatives want to deny people the right to make determinations regarding their own care?

Why do dems want to force ppl into gov't healthcare?

What good is private insurance?

What good is government?
