Who’s spreading misinformation?

According to the Obama Administration there are a lot of people out there who are spreading misinformation about Health Care Reform.  The #1 guilty party is the Obama Administration.

Sara Palin’s attack that said there would be death panels for the elderly is based on misinformation… or is it?  Palin’s charge was wrong in a technical sense because the death panels are not in the HR 3200 proposal.  However, other death panels have already been put into place by Tom Daschle back when he was a Senator.

The Federal Coordinating Council for Comparative Effectiveness Research was put into place in HR 1 (the Stimulus Bill).  The counsel is the Brain child of Tom Daschle. 

“Daschle’s stated purpose (and therefore President Obama’s purpose) for creating the Council is to empower an unelected bureaucracy to make the hard decisions about health care rationing that elected politicians are politically unable to make. The end result is to slow costly medical advancement and consumption. Daschle argues that Americans ought to be more like Europeans who passively accept ‘hopeless diagnoses.’” (from American Thinker)

The VA has put into effect a 50 page booklet called “You Life, Your Choices” which guilt trips the elderly vets into just letting go of life. This booklet was taken off the VA websit today.  Good thing the internet is still free… it lays out a number of circumstances in which they may want to just die…

“The circumstances listed include ones common among the elderly and disabled: living in a nursing home, being in a wheelchair and not being able to “shake the blues.” There is a section which provocatively asks, “Have you ever heard anyone say, ‘If I’m a vegetable, pull the plug’?” There also are guilt-inducing scenarios such as “I can no longer contribute to my family’s well being,” “I am a severe financial burden on my family” and that the vet’s situation ’causes severe emotional burden for my family.’”

But remember folks… none of this is true, it’s just a bunch of misinformation being spread by the GOP!

It’s time you take a good long look at who is really lying.  It’s Obama.
