What Palin said was that the government was going to deny care to Down Syndrome kids like her son.

When that happens, she'll be right.

The Death Panels Are Coming

Are you willing to have your taxes raised so that everyone on a government funded healthcare program will always get every treatment available no matter what the cost?

You're quite challenged on the facts. Do you even know what Sarah Palin said in her infamous death panel rant?

Why don't you have someone look it up for you.

The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s “death panel” so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their “level of productivity in society,” whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil.

You sir, are a fucking asshole of the first degree

At one point in American history, it would happen. Anyway now your admitting to death panels?

Wrong as usual.

Palin said that she didn't want her son to stand in front of a government panel that had the power to decide whether he would get the health care he needed. And she referred to it as a "Death Panel".

Her exact quote:

Statement on the Current Health Care Debate

The Democrats promise that a government health care system will reduce the cost of health care, but as the economist Thomas Sowell has pointed out, government health care will not reduce the cost; it will simply refuse to pay the cost. And who will suffer the most when they ration care? The sick, the elderly, and the disabled, of course. The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s “death panel” so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their “level of productivity in society,” whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil.

It also happens to be true that it is unconstitutional for government to run health insurance plans at all, except those directly connected to the military and foreign commerce.

But Palin was pretty much on the mark when she called a government empowered to decide those thing, "evil".

I remember folks trying to talk Blue Cross into experimental treatments back in the day. Talk about the death panel of private insurance.

I remember my mother in law taking her dog to the vet and finding out she couldn't afford the treatment to keep that yappy rat terrier alive. The death panel of a capitalism reared its head that day.

Not being able to afford insurance is the ultimate death panel.

And no such system exists or ever will. Sarah Palin, if it's possible, is more full of shit than you are.

Death Panels for Babies in Obamacare? Kids With RSV Should Beware

Sarah Palin was attacked mercilessly for her claims that the Obamacare legislation would lead to death panels — where bureaucrats would make treatment decisions for patients or ration their expensive medical care.
Since then even some of her most ardent critics and strongest early supporters of ObamaCare have had to admit that Palin was right and that there are definitely death panels, a rationing board, or whatever you want to call it written into the ObamaCare legislation!
LifeNews.com: Sarah Palin was attacked mercilessly for her claims that the Obamacare legislation would lead to death panels — where bureaucrats would make treatment decisions for patients or ration their expensive medical care.
Since her warning salvo was fired, numerous examples have come up involving Obamacare rationing medical care or putting in cost containments that would lead to rationed care or prohibit patients from spending more of their own money on lifesaving medical treatment or wanted care.
Now, Jacqueline Halbig, principal at Sovereign Global Solutions and former senior policy adviser for the Dept. of Health and Human Services, has a guest post at the pro-life blog run by Jill Stanek about another Obamacare rationing example.
Parents of children with disabilities should pay particular attention because Halbig says “babies, especially those born prematurely, now face an even greater uphill battle – receiving needed health care” thanks to Obamacare. The rest of her column follows:
Every year between November and March, there are outbreaks of Respiratory Syncytial Virus, an illness similar to the flu.

​

RSV is the leading cause of pneumonia and bronchiolitis, and hospitalization for children under the age of one; premature infants and children before the age of two with congenital heart or chronic lung disease are considered to be at highest risk.
Each year RSV causes two million hospitalizations and 14,000 deaths. In addition, RSV disproportionately affects minority and especially African American babies, who, according to the Centers for Disease Control, are 59% percent more likely to be born prematurely than white infants.
While there is no vaccine for RSV, there is an FDA-approved treatment available. When it became available in 1997, the American Academy of Pediatrics issued evidence-based guidelines for its use, recommending that the treatment be administered once per month during outbreak season (an average of five months total).
But in 2009, with no clear medical evidence for doing so, the AAP both shrunk the pool of eligible infants and reduced the number of RSV treatments that would be made available – for some babies down to 3 doses, while for others as low as 1 dose. The only clear reason given was cost.
Unfortunately, the AAP’s guidelines are widely implemented by Medicaid and insurance providers, who in turn followed suit and greatly reduced coverage.
In response, concerned groups of parents, prenatal advocates, and medical providers such as the National Perinatal Association, the National Medical Association, and the National Black Nurses Association have pointed out that there is no definitive research to support these changes (indeed, these are not FDA-approved doses) and are urging the AAP to reconsider their recommendations.
If cost is the issue, let’s consider the cost of non-treatment. A 2010 study by the NMA and NBNA showed the rate of hospitalization and emergency room visits without proper treatment for RSV is astronomical.
For example, a child not properly treated for RSV is five times more likely to be hospitalized and more than twice as likely to visit an emergency room visit than with the flu.
But for those premature infants who received treatment, hospitalization decreased by 55-80%. Furthermore, infants who received the recommended treatment had decreased emergency room and physician office visits. As a result, there are cost savings associated with proper treatment.
Since RSV disproportionately affects African American, Hispanic and premature babies, there is great concern that this rationing policy will further increase health disparities in these communities.
So what’s the real benefit of limiting this treatment? If Obamacare’s objective is to make health care more accessible and affordable, an honest cost benefit analysis would respect the bottom line and acknowledge that an ounce of RSV prevention is cheaper than a pound of emergency room cure – unless their bottom line equates death as the cheapest option.
