The false assertions we are hearing made about the proposed healthcare overhaul are a natural consequence of the need for the birthers (those who deny that Barack Obama was born in the U.S.) to grow from being foolish looking to truly being foolish.
Most interesting, along with the Hawkings example Harry cited, is the Republican-conservative attack on the proposed plans on the basis of legislated "death panels" (forcing euthanasia of the elderly and infirm). The original proposer of this particular legislation that is being attacked is a Republican-conservative senator. I guess the plot to kill America's elderly and infirm isn't really a Democrat-liberal plot but a Republican-conservative plot.
One would think a drug addict like Rush Limbaugh would love to have a national health plan. He wouldn't have to pay out of pocket to feed his habit -- his fellow taxpayers could support him.
