#5 July 26, 1940 July 18, 1969

One 'would be' elderly, Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania lady Ted has already taken care of. Most missed the anniversary of her watery passing on Saturday.

#6 Not everyone, Besoeker. This blog comes to us from Canada with a commemorative Google logo they should have used on the 18th.

#7 Any wonder that Congress is exempt from Obamacare.

At the Rural Tour Town Hall yesterday in Reserve, Louisiana Sec. Sebelius was asked whether Obamacare would apply to Congress and Administration people and Sebelius ducked and dodged for a couple of minutes; the questioner then said "Answer the question," which was followed by a bit more evasion at which point the whole crowd called out "ANSWER the QUESTION".

#8 The amendment to make the provisions in the bill apply to Congresscritters and their associated parasites was quickly shot down, so there's yer answer.....

#9 Hey, at least the old farts get free mandatory euthanasia "counseling".
we should be very troubled by Section 1233 of H.R. 3200. The section, titled Advanced Care Planning Consultation requires senior citizens to meet at least every 5 years with a doctor or nurse practitioner to discuss dying with dignity.

Time to be "Going Home" you old commie hippies.

#11 "ANSWER the QUESTION"

It's about Power Baby!
It's never really been about fairness, equality, or justice.

#12 "ANSWER the QUESTION"

She'll never willingly visit a red state again.

The sheer hypocrisy and evil of the Demonrats never flags or fails.

#14 Does anyone have a link for the "Answer the Question" item? I couldn't find it on NOLA . com. I did find this tidbit, though. The VA hospital in New Orleans was closed just after Katrina hit in 2005. It has not been replaced. There are 39,000 veterans in its catchment area. A government which refuses to meet its current health care obligations now wants to vastly expand them.

#15 One has the feeling that the plans for spending less on people in "the last year of their life" advance the date of that "last year of life" sooner by several years.

#16 Anguper,
My wife was THERE. She reports the "Answer the question" item. The media were there too. For some reason they do not choose to report the item.

#19 Why do I get this idea that there is this insulated out-of-touch crazy circus going on in Washington and then there are the rest of us in the hinterlands?

#20 My wife was THERE. She reports the "Answer the question" item. The media were there too. For some reason they do not choose to report the item. I guess it's time for a little citizen journalism. Tape the meeting, type up a transcript, and post it online.

Probably because it's been that way for most of the past century.
