"It does us no good to incite fear in people by saying that there's these end-of-life provisions, these death panels," Murkowski, a Republican, said. "Quite honestly, I'm so offended at that terminology because it absolutely isn't (in the bill). There is no reason to gin up fear in the American public by saying things that are not included in the bill."

I'd much rather we talk about what *is* in the bill, than what *isn't*. Scare tactics such as Sarah Palin and others in the Republic party have been using don't in any way further the debate. This issue is so important that it deserves good discussion -- not hyperbole and flat out lies...

it's so nice to see that the DivaDope is still losing friends fast in her own party....when members of your own party call you a liar nominations to anything are not gonna happen....
It is nice of Murkowski to admit that righy lies are not the way to go.

Maybe some rightists in here could take a hint ???
