The Death Panels Become Permanent! | All American Blogger

While the press attention is diverted to talking about the sexual preferences of a NY congressman and the details of the so-called ‘reconciliation bill’ we are not reminded about a key element of the Senate Health-care bill that is certainly of questionable constitutionality!

In section 3403 (starting at page 1,000) of the bill we find the following on pages 1019 and 1020: ‘‘(3) LIMITATION ON CHANGES TO THE BOARD RECOMMENDATIONS.— ‘‘(A) IN GENERAL.—It shall not be in order in the Senate or the House of Representatives to consider any bill, resolution, or amendment, pursuant to this subsection or conference report thereon, that fails to satisfy the requirements of subparagraphs (A)(i) and (C) of sub- 4 section (c)(2).

Specifically the bill states that neither the US Senate or the US House of Representatives can change or remove the Independent Medicare Advisory Board (IMAB) which is created to “reduce the per capita rate of growth in Medicare spending.”

This is the panel that Sarah Palin aptly named a ‘death panel’ charged with determining which procedures/medications/treatments are acceptable, based on financial considerations for all people covered by Medicare. And, since many insurance companies use the Medicare rules for their own procedures this will affect the entire population.

Based on this section alone our elected representatives will not be able to amend or change this in any way through future actions. In other words, this bill binds all future legislatures.

This does not pass the basic smell test and should be brought to the attention of the American public!

What else do we need to know?

The liberals’ clearly politically motivated method of debunking “death panels” is disingenuous. It’s like debunking a hyperbole such as “traffic ticket fines are set by a ‘revenue raising board.’” We know that life and death decisions will not be made directly by a board on a patient by patient basis. Palin was using rhetoric to effectively point out that bureaucrats using the complete life system were going to decide what treatments to approve or not based on age (decisions that could allow patients to die because treatment to keep them alive is too expensive) as part of the cost cutting methods discussed in this post.

Just as municipalities who set up speeding laws and fines in the name of safety end up having those set by people who determine how much revenue the municipality will raise from those fines, so is setting criteria for what health care will be provided by people who end up being in charge of reducing “the per capita rate of growth in Medicare spending.” This has to take into consideration at what age or stage of illness certain treatments are denied for cost reasons. These decisions are made by “panels” or groups of people.

Great article, Wes. Let’s once again clarify this for the liberals: Sarah Palin was not saying there will be a room somewhere with a sign on it that says “Death Panel” just as we know there isn’t a room at city hall next to traffic court that says “Revenue Raising Panel.” It’s rhetorical. Palin landed her point and landed it well. If someone says it’s raining cats and dogs and you produce a weather report that shows the precipitation was liquid and not animal, you may have debunked the literal interpretation, but it doesn’t change the rhetorical point being made that it rained really hard.

Here the real talking point. The new Liberal Social Commi NZI party has not only taken over they have deleted the constitution. They have walked on every person who has ever served defending this country from the lowest solider right up to the highest general. They have told the world that there new dictator rules the world and that the United States of America is no more. They have completely gotten into bed with the Bilderberg Group and there monument that they created in North Carolina tells what there agenda is. The New Stonehenge that is place right here in America tells of them organizing a group to kill over 6 billion people so that they can be dictators themselves and the rest of the people are slaves so that they can be feed and clothed.

Health Care is only one step but not the first. If you have any questions then look up the GIVE act he signed into law during his first 90 days. He created a national security force just like NZI Germany, Russia Communist, China Communist, North Korean Communist, The Iranian Republic Guard.
So what to do???? It is time to not only step up, but arrest these idiots and put them on trail for HIGH TREASON against this country. Find them guilty because it will not be hard to do because they have done everything in the national press and punish them to the fullest extend of the law. We must or we die due to the death panels and our children the ones left become slaves. Don’t kid yourselves the death panels were the easy way to kill a whole bunch of us before the Nor Cal Defense force takes over and put the rest of us in Concentration Camps.
