These cowardly Democrat extremists will always hide behind the bureaucracy, which is why they created it in the first place. BUT, we get the govt we deserve. The only thing that can save our country and wake the sheeple up is complete economic collapse, starting with the stock market. The Right Policy is Always Conservative "The danger to America is not Barack Obama, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools, such as those who made him their President." - Vaclav Klaus |

What they are asking is for her to move ahead of all of the people who were waiting longer. This could cause someone else to die instead.

ObamaCare DENIES critical life saving organ transplant for 10 YEAR OLD GIRL because shes TOO YOUNG!! The funny thing is that the current transplant policy was drawn up (in 2005) by members of the OPTN, who are medical doctors and came up with a policy that they believe will give most patients the greatest chance of surviving. And now the Repuiblicans want Sebelius (a politician) to interfere in this decision making and bump the girl up the list, making a decision which could save her life but might also shorten the life of someone else. So basically the Republicans want a politician to overrule the medical opinion of a doctor to decide if someone lives or dies. Sounds a bit a death panel, right? |
