There's a bunch of fringe people advocating violence whether it's a doctor doing his job or that Wilson moron lying.

What was your point?

What's wrong with it?

According to the recent PR, nationalized healthcare was Edwards pet project. He's dead. So is nationalized healthcare. It can be like his forever comapanion.
 
Tasteless? After the last 8 years, that's hardly a concern of the left.

Oh yeah? What politicians on the right do anything campaign wise that does not consist mostly of smearing the opponent in a negative campaign? They really offer nothing solution wise, just "look, this guys sucks more than me!" Just because you happen to agree with them doesn't alter the reality that this is something both sides do. It just shows your willingness to be ignorant and blind to bad behavior of these who share your opinions....

Can you say Baaaaah!

Joe Wilson Voted to Provide Taxpayer Money for Illegal Immigrants' Healthcare

On Wednesday night, Rep. Joe Wilson [R, SC-2], shouted “You lie!” at President Obama when he said that the healthcare bill would not cover illegal immigrants. “The supporters of the government takeover of healthcare and liberals who want to give healthcare to illegals are using my opposition as an excuse to distract from the critical questions being raised about this poorly conceived plan,” Wilson said the next day in a campaign fundraising video.

However, in 2003, Wilson voted to provide federal funds for illegal immigrants’ healthcare. The vote came on the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003, which contained Sec. 1011 authorizing $250,000 annually between 2003 and 2008 for government reimbursements to hospitals who provide treatment for uninsured illegal immigrants. The program has been extended through 2009 and there is currently a bipartisan bill in Congress to make it permanent.

Hospitals have a legal obligation to treat everyone who comes in seeking care, regardless of citizenship status, insurance or other characteristics. This means that hospitals treat millions of people every year who don’t have the means to pay. Obviously, this drives up the nation’s healthcare costs overall. Section 1011 helps cushion the costs for hospitals, but it’s not nearly enough to cover the actual costs in most areas.

To be fair, Section 1011 is just a small part of a much larger bill that contained many Republican priorities. Still, Wilson’s protest against the current healthcare reform proposal giving coverage to illegal immigrants (which is false), is in direct contradiction to his 2003 vote. Allowing illegal immigrants to purchase unsubsidized healthcare through the Exchange that would be set up under the current proposal wouldn’t cost taxpayers a cent, and it would be a step towards fixing the problem that Section 1011 was designed to throw federal money at.

You quoted an article that said that??

There is a legal obligation to treat everyone who comes in seeking care.....regardless of insurance......who don't have the means to pay????

Apparently, the people you say have died because they were refused treatment because of no insurance didn't know about this "legal obligation." :rolleyes:

You can't get regular dialysis, proper cancer treatment, or your daily prescriptions through a emergency room Cerise.
 
You describe critical care patients.

The "death panel" branch of 0bamacare would take care of them.


:shrug:
 
How about the H1N1 flu shots death panel?

Those under 65 will be allowed to recieve a flu shot. There are rules about who gts what, when but the most imteresting one was those over 64 MAY NOT receive a shot until after the other 156,000,000 candidates have had first dibs.

Killing gramma time.

Source....local radio guy reading the CDC (or similar) orders.
 
Not seeing anything on that related to the bill. Seems like their medicare would cover that.
