LOL! Good lord - are you kidding me? Get out of your cave.

As far as the faked "death panel" provision (end of life, living will counseling, etc) - it was supported by many a Republican and voted into Medicare in an exact duplicate version just a couple years ago, btw, lead by the GOP, in fact - that was removed by the Senate committee working on that version of the bill before they went on recess.

So - first, the ignorant Palin mischaracterizes the above provision (which she herself has supported in the past, by the way, when presented by the GOP) as a "death panel" - when it's not even still in the Senate version of the bill - then secondly, she takes credit for "eliminating" it when it was no longer there, and hasn't been for some weeks now!

You can't make this stuff up ...
