Assisted Suicide: State Plan Foreshadows Obamacare Government Healthcare Takeover

[dlwke2]

@grape123123, government takeover of healthcare and government healthcare rationing is the last thing we need. This woman's story serves as a warning to all of us. We will repeal Obamacare, if the US Supreme Court doesn't first declare the mandate provision unconstitutional. Either way, the highly unpopular and disastrous Obamacare law will not stand.

"Your treating physicians regretfully have come to the conclusion that withdrawal of active treatment is medically reasonable, ethically responsible and appropriate. We must put the interests of your son foremost and it is in his best interests to discontinue mechanical ventilation support.

"You have our deepest sympathies at this difficult time." - Text of an actual letter received by a Calgary couple whose infant son is on life support.

The maker of that drug came forward and gave Mrs Wagoner that drug for free. Kudos's to them.

Wait until the entire country gets Obama's health care plan.

Eugenics, pure and simple, perpetrated on the American People by the traitors in Washington who have their own "no limits" health care.

[InHisArms33]

They have NO RIGHT to tell a patient they aren't worth it, they are worthless to society and that they should die. I certainly wouldn't want to be told that!

That Dr. Sam Saha is just a lying hypocrite. Who does he think he is fooling?

[darlena1956]

Dr. Som Saha is DR. Death. Is this what american's really want? The government to decide our worth? Reminds me of Nazi germany concentration camps for the ones the goverment deamed not worthy of living.

[ancientmariner1984]

This is not what we want for healthcare. Nobama will see to it that we get it though through sneaky legislation regardless of the People's voice.

I'm so disappointed in the terrible response given by Dr. Som Saha.

[AaronFMarks]

Dr Saha is totally lying - not pandering, not spin control - 100% straight lying through his teeth!  If Obamacare brings "free" health care you can expect it to be exactly this!

[debbeejean]

Dr. Saha...how about if it was your child or parent's health at stake? Sould we just "off them?" Remember your Hippocratic Oath! Or are you just a typical hypocrite? How dare you.

[debbeejean]

Dr. Sam Saha speaks out of both sides of his face...what a QUACK.

[debbeejean]

Also...this is a taste of what is to come in our own "land of the free" should Obama's so called "healthcare" plan be passed.

Maybe we should go after the drug companies...how can a months worth of pills be cost $4000.00???

[debbeejean]

Unbelievable. Are we in the dark ages?

Hippocratic Oath: (in part)

" I will prescribe regimens for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgment and never do harm to anyone.

I will not give a lethal drug to anyone if I am asked, nor will I advise such a plan; and similarly I will not give a woman a pessary to cause an abortion.

But I will preserve the purity of my life and my arts.

Amen, and so it should be.
