Thank you. I'm still trying to sort out the differences, but I believe his statement still stands that attempts to equate end of life planning with euthanasia are deranged.

Isakson issued a press release saying Obama misused his name. A provision he attached to a Senate health care bill would allow seniors to obtain help in formulating a living will something Isakson said is different from House language.

Bimbo Palin mentions "death panels" and unthinking wingnuts repeat it like parrots. If she ever pulled a Jim Jones and called on her followers to drink poison kool-aid, I wonder how many would follow her orders?

This is so messed up. That lady was genuine in her question but she had the Radical republican/ Insurance talking points sheet. I feel sad for this country when the government decides to do something for its people and The Republican Party has darkened the hearts of even the simplest honest people to thinking that the Government is the problem. Tell that to people who lost their jobs in the recession handed by GWB. Thats why as a republican Obama has my vote in 2012

republican Senator Johnny Isakson (R-GA), cosponsor of the 2007 Medicare End of Life Planning Act and proposer of an amendment similar to Section 1233, points out that all 50 states currently have some legislation allowing end-of-life directives and says emphatically that interpretations of Section 1233 as euthenasia are, in his words, "nuts".
