Falsehood is not often an obstacle to the typical right-winger..

Please, people, stop gulping John Mr. Orange Boehner's kool-aid ... your insurance company tells you who you can see, when you can see them and dictates the cost of and quality and quantity of care, not your doctor.
Currently treatment can't be denied at a hospital.

Nope, they're keeping their own healthcare (which we foot the bill for). No rationing for them.

This whole thing is a cover for euthanasia.

When he said that, I knew exactly what it meant... I was a bit saddened but I do realize it would only affect those who don't want to pay for their own health care... Its tiered care, they get the lousy stuff but they aren't paying for it, you are... We sort of have that right now... and yes, you are correct, this is NOT the same health care that Congress gets... not even close... I wish Obama would stop comparing the universal health care plan to Congress's own personal plan... its laughable...

Treatment can't be denied, but depending on the nature of the ER visit, payment certainly can be denied.

If you walk into the ER with a mosquito bite, you'll be handed the $500 bill.

Yes it is. And they plan on storing the bodies on the moon! But we've never been to the moon.

tell your government that you'd like weekly chest x rays and CT scans and get back to me with the government's response, after it has been sent off to committee......

Committee? LOL.

So, I take it you are agreeing that healthcare is already rationed?
