The following text is being sent out for publication in American newspapers and magazines; clearly the standards of journalism on the far right are less
ethical than they have ever accused the MSM of being. Yes, they have the right to write such tripe, but that doesn't necessarily make it truthful or even fit to be read. Hopefully the majority of most Americans are too intelligent to be taken in by someone base enough to attempt to frighten others who are more credulous. Feel free...even compelled...to do as I did: call and e-mail
this person to protest, plus forward it to friends and colleagues who will do the same. Obama Targets Boomers For Extinction. Right..and I'm really Angelina Jolie. What shameless fear-mongering.
[SIZE=3] In the 1948 Hitchcock movie, “Rope”, the very avant-garde theme of elitism and superior moral authority mirrors the current debate on Obama and the Democrat’s health care plan. In the film, two friends are taught that members of the world’s elite have a right to eliminate whomever they deem inferior. Testing this theory, the men decide to strangle a friend from the same boarding school. They hide his body in plain sight while throwing a party to honor him, ostensibly mocking those who love him. This of course was produced on the heels of the greatest holocaust the world has ever known with characters representing the polemic positions of both the victims and those who deemed them as less than worthy to live.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]The health care bill that Obama proposes has this theme at its core and has in its crosshairs, the Baby Boomer engine that is pulling the derailed economy as it takes its final lap toward retirement. In less than two years, Baby Boomers will begin retiring in multitudes, expecting to reclaim the hard earned money they have been paying into Social Security. But this Health Care Bill, HR3200, has other plans for them.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Those 65 and older will be required to undergo mandatory “end of life” counseling to determine if they are worthy to continue to not only live, but take much needed resources from those who are younger and more worthy to receive them. Counselors will be trained to discuss how to end life sooner, how to decline nutrition and hydration, how to go into hospice, etc. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]This will not be done without coercion. For those who have amassed assets enough to take care of themselves in their old age will have these assets confiscated in the name of fiscal responsibility, because by this time, every citizen will be entered into a national database under the guise of improved efficiency. This database will be run by a type of “star chamber,” appointed by the president, that will determine whether or not you deserve the much needed operation your personal doctor thinks you need. It is daunting to think that a panel of about 20 people will daily regulate, through a computer terminal, millions of people’s medical treatment.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]But perhaps it will not be as difficult a task as the numbers would suggest. When the mother of Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger, had issues with the large numbers of blacks, she advocated for increased access to abortion and forced sterilization of young black women. Her further plans to exterminate those who were infirmed, handicapped or a drain on society, precipitated Hitler’s idea and methods for his “final solution.”[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]The Margaret Sangers and Joseph Menglas of today are positioned to sit on this “star chamber.” One is Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, brother of Obama’s top advisor, Rham Emanuel. He is an advocate of “end of life” options and is on Obama’s Council of Comparative Effectiveness Research, a program developed to determine who is worthy to live and who isn’t. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Dr. Ezekiel believes medical care should be reserved for the non-disabled, not given to those “who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens . . . An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia”. In the June 18, 2008 Journal of the AMA, he writes, “Doctors take the Hippocratic Oath too seriously, as an imperative to do everything for the patient regardless of the cost or effects on others.” [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]In 2006 the Comparative Effectiveness Research denied the elderly a drug to cure macular degeneration until they had gone blind in one eye. These decisions will be made from Washington, in an impersonal, statistical fashion and seniors will be the victims. But remember, these draconian measures exempt our elected, most worthy officials, and their families, from the devastation of this proposed health care bill.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]The reason it is imperative for the Democrats and Obama to make sure it passes, on the heels of their outrageous “stimulus” package, bank bailout and GM buyout, is that they are running out of money. Boomers today represent 28% of the U.S. population and soon, upon retirement, they will end their tax producing years and put a huge strain on the Social Security System. With 40 million fewer children today, there are fewer paying into the Social Security system to reimburse those eligible to receive their portion. This is one of the reasons behind the hidden provisions in this very dangerous health care bill.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]We have seen this type of dictatorial behavior in the past, when one segment of society has determined itself to be more worthy of life than the rest. We have a choice to go the way of failed, deadly, socialist nations, or to let our voices be heard. [/SIZE]

People also screamed and hollered when Orwell wrote 1984. I bet you don't find those same people disputing it anymore. Sometimes, the far-fetched couldn't be any more accurate.

Oh, please! This tripe is ridiculous, and that is clear to anyone with an ounce of common sense. And nobody "hollered" about George Orwell's book, which was written with the subtext that authoritarian governments...the ones that justify spying on their own citizens and telling lies to create wars, not the liberal governments who are looking to provide their citizens with more freedoms, are the danger. That remains true, particularly when such inane
propaganda as this has become the norm. Shameless fear-mongering and blatant dishonesty...qualities America can do without.
BTW: Both women were too dumb to spell "Mengele" correctly...highlights their credibility...NONE.

Plus. who would pi$$ off such a large voting block with such policies. It's ridiculous. And what is sad is that the people who lap up such propaganda are too stupid to realize this.

Obviously, you missed my very simple point. Just because you see something as fear-mongering and blatantly dishonest does not mean it could not happen. People thought Orwell was off his rocker after writing 1984. As I said before, those people are eating crow these days. Am I defending the article? Absolutely not. Do I think that you and others don't believe sh*t stinks? Absolutely.
Yes, and I could have fertility treatments and give birth to triplets, too. Anything could happen. The only people eating crow over 1984 would be Cheney & his colleagues, because America chose not to take their Big Brother crap. Try burning a scented candle to get that smell out. What you think of me is the very last worry on my list, for sure.

Just because something is fear-mongering and blatantly dishonest does mean that it could not happen in the way they are suggesting it could. I don't think people thought Orwell as off his rocker at all. They saw some things as far-fetched, and in retrospect we don't consider those things to be as far-fetched now. But just to have retrospect takes time. What this article does is not only suggest a threat, but it tries to credibly make that threat seem immediate and to ascribe blame in a partisan manner that's not particularly responsible.
I think ALL of us, regardless of our political persuasions, would like to make our decisions based on real, accurate, and truthful assessments of policies. If there is honest discussion of those assessments, that's all the better. But when the assessments are clearly dishonest, that doesn't advance the positions or arguments of either side.
I think that Circle of Hell is suffering from a population boom. That some would publish such nonsense is obscene. That some would believe it is frightening.
