Congressman Keith Ellison on Euthanasia

Sorry for the shaky camera and people walking in and out of the frame. Filmed at a health care town hall meeting at Northpoint Health and Wellness center on 8/1/09. Rep. Keith Ellison addresses questions about Euthanasia in the proposed ObamaCare package. He denies that there is anything like this in the bill, but (after the footage stops) he said he "is glad this is on tape" because he will vote against any proposed Euthanasia measures put before the House of Representatives.

this is NOT about euthanasia, for christ sake. More right wing scare tactics. Have you "knowledgeable" people read the bill? Keep drinking the koolaid...it only makes you dumber....

Keith Ellison said he was addressing the topic of Euthanasia so I wouldn't say this is a right wing scare tactic.

What do you even mean by right wing scare tactic. I think it was a pretty good "scare tactic" when Obama says:

"shut up and pass this healthcare bill immediately or we will all die and the crisis will get worse if you take 3 days to read the bill"

This is no business of the federal government. Get these bastards the hell out of office.

Euthanasia is what all politicians deserve, those politicians who support this crap!

1) Toward the end of the bill those who need medical care are termed CONSUMERS?

2) Are you a consumer or a human life?

3) Thomas Perrelli was appt by Obama as an attorney general under Obama...he's a lawyer that fought to get Terri Schiavo starved and dehydrated to death!

Keith Ellison does not dress appropriately for a Congressman.
