Oregon Health Plan Denies Chemo Medicine- Assisted Suicide Offered Instead

But leftys want to impose this kind of treatment upon all of us. Just listen to the offended doctor.

This video is from last year.

After weeks of bad news, things turned Barbara Wagners way this week.
Last month her lung cancer, in remission for about two years, was back. After her oncologist prescribed a cancer drug that could slow the cancer growth and extend her life, Wagner was notified that the Oregon Health Plan wouldnt cover it.
It would cover comfort and care, including, if she chose, doctor-assisted suicide.

First, I don't watch Fox News or listen to Rush Limbaugh, so don't go there. I get my news from a variety of sources (unbiased, right wing, and left wing). I think about all of it then form my own opinions. The reason I don't support Obama's "health care" program is because I don't have enough faith and trust in the government; the same government that gave us Bush. Would you feel comfortable putting your livelihood in the hands of HIM? We could have another one like him elected 2012, you know.

This is what you get when you put all faith and trust in the government like liberals do. Then they accuse conservatives of blindly trusting the gov't. We don't trust the gov't, hence the reason why we're conservative! It hasn't done anything trustworthy in the past 100+ years, save for 1981-1989. The hypocrisy, ignorance, lies, naivety, and total lack of critical thinking skills displayed by liberals and democrats is just astounding. Literally, it saddens me.

@nebulacide ...You are a real piece of work. You are fucked up beyond all belief.

Where do you get off with this shit?

Seriously ass hole, you've got a problem that I don't think you can ever fix.

Now crawl back under the porch and resume gnawing on your hind foot.....or better yet, just slink back down into your mother's basement Sparky.

Damn, you take the cake.

@dantescritic The (Canadian) increase corresponded with their national increase in the median wait time for medically necessary treatment, i.e., the national median wait time for treatment after consultation with a specialist was 8.0 weeks in 2009 and 9.3 weeks in 2010.

@dantescritic Ttoday's news: ?? Canadians receive treatment outside Canada each year? Results of the Fraser Institute's "Waiting Your Turn" survey and yearly Canadian procedure counts, 44,794 Canadians in total received treatment outside Canada in 2010. An increase from the 41,006 Canadians outside Canada in 2009.

@GutpileCharlie  There is something called "dual citizenship" you pile of steaming shit. Yes, it is possible to actually have left Alabama and all the sister-fuckin behind. It does happen.

[GutpileCharlie]

[GutpileCharlie]

@dantescritic Damn! You certainly are a testy little shit, aren't you.

Let me tell you something Sparky, I'm not "arguing" with you. You don't have a point. You are nothing but an in the tank left wing, socialst/Marxist, rat bastard, ass clown pathetic little son of a bitch.

I enjoy watching you freaks just go ape shit.

You are a "gimme my shhit", "my shit is your shit", "I'm a victim" piece of excrement.

Karma is a bitch. You reap what you sow!

Fuck you ass hole.

@dantescritic , Then there are all the people who die while waiting for the rationed socialism care.

You think you can go into any social medicine government health clinic and get medical treatment for anything other than a simple medical procedure or an acute emergency situation? You think if you develop a cancer for instance, you will be treated in a timely manner. Then there are all the people who die while waiting for the rationed socialism care.

@dantescritic  "socialist countries have less deaths, pay less for healthcare and provide people with care whether or not they have pre-existing conditions." --- Are you kidding? You can't be serious. I guess you ignore studies that have consistently shown socialist medicine in fact does cost far more made up from massive taxing structure.The cost are high mostly due to the bureaucratic inefficiencies that come with any government run program.
