The implications of Obamacare for the elderly immediately reminded me of the “Bring out your dead” bit from Monty Python’s Holy Grail movie:

Like most things in the new Obamanation, the absurd has transformed into the reality.

Here’s your nine pence, mate!

I was wondering what the were they going to do with all us babyboomers.
After all we did contribute a lot of money to the social security fund then we get to the end we get screwed again.Just take us behind barn after all they shoot horses don’t they? This sounds like “Animal Farm”.

It all sounds like some awful, futuristic, scienc-fiction movie. Take God out of everything, and this is what we get: a toothless (no pun intended) country run by godless, bureaucratic, money-grasping incompetents. Next time, I’ll tell you what I really think…

And they threw Dr. Kervorkian in jail for assisting in suicides. Maybe Obama can appoint Dr Kervorkian as “end of life czar”. Thinking again, Dr. Kervorkian has experience in this field, therefore not qualified.

IF THE ADMINISTRATION WAS TRULY INTERESTED IN HEALTH CARE COST THEY SHOULD RESEARCH MEDICARE. FRAUDULENT CLAIMS ARE COSTING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS. THEN THEY SHOULD TACKLE ILLEGALS, SEND THEM PACKING, AND WE WOULD RECOUP BILLIONS MORE!! THIS PROPOSED “HEALTH CARE PLAN” HAS A SMELL TO IT REMINISCENT OF HITLER’S MASS EXTERMINATION.

CAN WE SURVIVE THE NEXT 3 YRS AND 6 MONTHS???? BY THAT TIME CONGRESS SHOULD BE EXHAUSED FROM ALL THEIR GIDDY RECKLESS SPENDING. I CAN PICTURE THEM LAYING ON THE FLOOR AMONG THE PINATAS AND SILLY STRING WITH SMILES ON THEIR FACES…LORD HELP US!!!!

Jaw-dropping is right! The proposed Obamacare is to include counciling sessons for season citizens, all in an effort to push them not to recieve any medical help in order to in a so-called way to save money. Yet the ironic part is that Obamacare will be generous towards illegels. Look for this to be the elder version of Planned Parenthood on a grand scale.

Elderly clinices will be run like planned parenthood facilities which are known to exploit frightened naive women in their most vulnerable state, brow beating them into taking a human life. The elderly will face similar exploitations. Their worst fears of slow painful death will be played upon by the marxist beaurocrats as they pressure the old to make the the final ultimate sacrifice to the state. What is worse is that these clinic session will be used to render living wills null and void. The wise elderly who choose life are at risk of their wills being challenged in court by the marxist beaurocrat who will testify they found the person to be of unsound mind and body in their death with dignity reeducation classes.

The thud you just heard was the sound of my jaw dropping onto my keyboard. Short of a provision in the bill that requires the government to put a gun to the head of everyone over 65, and, pull the trigger, I doubt that I could envision anything more outrageous.
If the revealation of this provision doesn’t make people call their legislators, nothing will.
