The vile dishonesty of the Left is seldom so obvious as in this "end of life counseling" business. Only really, really stupid or ignorant people can fail to understand that is the Left who wants people to die and die quickly. It's a matter of dollars and cents, both on the part of the ObamaCare gang and the for-profit hospice industry that stands to make a lot of money from this scam.
Those who read this piece (i.e., those who seriously give a tinker's dam about the value of life) will be reminded that the ObamaCare cheering section has essentially stated right out in the open that oldsters should just get with the program and die. They talk about dignity, but there is nothing dignified about a government that decides who has lived enough years and who has not.
Mark my words, euthanasia is coming, courtesy of the first far left of center administration this century. My guess is that some of the people mentioned by McCaughey probably have pictures of Jack Kevorkian on their walls. They will not make euthanasia mandatory. Well, not at first, anyway. But you can be assured that pretty soon the federal government will float the idea of federal funding of euthanasia. And they will push vulnerable seniors, many of whom could be treated, go home, and continue living productively, into seeing things their way.
You know, when you no longer believe in God, it becomes rather easy to assume that you are both qualified and honor-bound to make decisions traditionally thought to be the providence of a deity. What is so scary about this is that one does not have to be a Ted Bundy, a Jeffry Dahmer, or a John Wayne Gacy to be in favor of forced euthanasia. Those monsters were sociopaths who enjoyed killing for its own sake. No, what's scary is that some "normal" people will eventually propose and back government funded and semi-forced euthanasia because they think it is the good and just thing to do.
Bottom line: Often times, bad ideas win out over good ones. Those who believe that government-coerced policies are good and just have swallowed the bad ideas. It will always be very hard to make them see that they are monsters just as much as Bundy and his like.

I am really surprised that both the article and your comments did not get more attention. It could be it is just too disgusting for even the usual suspects. I am just as disturbed about the current Planned Parenthood story and it's war on the beginning of life. If is not enough to abort babies but to sell the parts is so evil that it is hard to express the level of disgust that I have for those people. Hope Congress can stand up to the liberals and cut funding to Planned Parenthood and send it the way of ACORN.

Hope Congress can stand up to the liberals and cut funding to Planned Parenthood and send it the way of ACORN. While I would prefer that children who are unplanned or unwanted are brought to term and then put up for adoption (my kids are adopted), I believe that it is the woman's choice. To force a woman to give birth against her will is just wrong. Also, forcing YOUR religious beliefs on others is also just wrong whether you are Christian, Jewish, or Muslim.

OK, that is fine and a different discussion. This is about and your comment should have been on the killing of the near term babies and then selling the organs. If Congress has any backbone at all it will defund Planned Parenthood.

I am really surprised that both the article and your comments did not get more attention. . Are you really? First I'm called vilely disgusting, then coaxed into clicking his link by being told I don't care about the value of life if I don't. He thinks, apparently, that Obama is bringing "semi"(whatever that means)-forced euthanasia and states that anyone who doesn't share his religious flavor actually believes they are god (quite the opposite, in my experience). Then rounds it out by stating if you believe a policy with government coercion can ever be good you are equal to Ted Bundy. I dunno, he's close to going off the deep end from someone who has reasonable views (ie one of the good Repubs) to just another bubble-dwelling, far-right religious fanatic who has more in common with the people he's scared of then he'll ever realize. At this point, it's best to just not engage when the Admin hammer is routinely used to police and enforce any strong rhetoric that challenges his assertions. If a leftie wrote a post with the same statements from above, there would no doubt be warnings, bans, public threats posted from admin accounts, etc. tl; dr...you shouldn't be all that surprised.
