Sarah Palin was correct Obamacare, and the bureaucrats who will be administering it, will be operating Death Panels. We all should be frightened to death if Obamacare is not repealed, especially if you are over 70. Listen to this phone message from a neurosurgeon who called in to radio talk show host Mark Levin after previewing the health care bill in late December at a seminar in Washington D.C.

Editor’s Note:
We at ICE News were discussing the ramifications of the Supreme Court’s decision on Obamacare when someone made the comment, “That was a really black day for America. Maybe the worst in many years.”
His remark got me thinking. Which was the more momentous date? When the Court issued its verdict on June 28? When the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was enacted into law and signed by Barack Obama in March 2010? Or was the most critical date November 2008, when a lot of gullible Americans accepted Barack Obama’s promises for “hope and change” and elected him President?
When a proposal to encourage end-of-life planning touched off a political storm over “death panels” in 2010, Democrats dropped it from legislation to overhaul the health care system. But did the Obama Administration really drop the idea? No, they didn’t.
The 2009 charge leveled by former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and the then-House Minority Leader John Boehner that Obama fully intended to set up what Palin termed
government “death panels” — panels that Boehner said would set the government on the road to euthanasia — is no longer a charge.
It’s reality. By executive fiat — in this case a new Medicare rule issued by Obama Medicare chief Dr. Donald Berwick.
Palin, who made the charge on her Facebook page on August 7, 2009 during the health care debates, came under a fusillade of scornful and demeaning political attacks from political opponents after pointedly saying this about the prospect of death panels:
“And who will suffer the most when they ration care,” Palin said. “The sick, the elderly, and the disabled, of course. The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s “death panel” so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their “level of productivity in society,” whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil.”
What Barack Obama and the Democratic Party are doing to this great nation is evil.
If, after you watch the video below, you’re not angry enough to “storm the barricades” this November, this nation is really in big trouble.
