Death Panel Dan Doubles Down

Sen. Harry Reid's wife and daughter were in a car accident a few days ago, and Reid's wife Landra suffered a broken back and neck in the crash.  Enter Winger scuzzbag Dan Riehl, who argues flat out that Harry Reid should set an example of health care reform...by euthanizing his wife.

I'm not sure I quite understand this, given that cost is so important as a burden to taxpayers when it comes to health care. If Democrats want so badly to abort babies because of it, why are we bothering with someone who has a broken neck and back at 69? It sounds to me like she's pretty well used up and has probably been living off the taxpayers for plenty of years to begin with. Aren't we at least going to get a vote on it?

Wow.  Nice guy.  We're bringing up the death panel nonsense again on a Senator's wife.  There really isn't a level they will stoop to, because that assumes they are not already and always playing the lowest card in their hand.  But Dan goes on.

I realize her crook of a husband and his pals in Congress have excluded themselves from the mess they're going to compel everyone else to join, but we're still paying the bills, are we not? I don't see that she's worth it at this point, frankly. I can't recall her ever doing anything for me.

Come on, Harry - do your civic duty. The nation's broke and counting on you guy. Pull the plug and get back to work. And don't bill us for a full day today, either. This is no time to be sloughing off. Air freight her home, you can bury her during recess on your own time and dime. Or are you going to bill us for that, too?

There's a soulless husk of a man.  And once he figures out he's been called out, he continues his tirade:

These people have no principles. They have no right to take exception to my post. You can not advocate killing children to save money while allowing severely injured 69 year-old people to live. The actuarial argument actually benefits the young. Unless, of course, they figure it will be mostly poor black and hispanics, so what the hell!!

Within ten-years they will be doing precisely what I suggested for Reid's wife. It's their shame they are linking, not my own! Make them choke on it!

What hasn't occured to Riehl is that the cost of health care itself is the problem...and the insurance companies that already make these decisions thousands of times a year because they refuse to pay for it.  We already have death panels, you jackass.  They're called insurance company claims adjusters.  They decide who gets money for treatment and who doesn't.

Second point:  "Democrats wanting abortions to save money" is his problem.  Well, who said that?

It was Bart Stupak, complaining to of all people, the National Review.  No proof, just what Stupak said.  They certainly have the best interests of Americans who need health insurance coverage at heart, and haven't been trying to kill health care reform, nope!  But that's proof enough for Riehl to go on yet another tirade and bring up the death panel lie again to justify killing Sen. Reid's wife, because all of our loved one will be murdered by the gubmint!

You know, instead of killed by our wonderful insurance companies.  Jesus wept.
