What's up fellow commie Marxists? It's time for another trip down Wingerblogosphere™ lane where the truly lame pathetic memes of the day reside. Today it's: "Obamacare Medical Codes Confirm: Execution by Beheading To Be Implemented in America"

Wow! This is some pretty heavy-duty scary stuff complete with a photograph of a masked executioner swinging a curved sword downward, just inches from the neck of the condemned.

What's going on here?

Naw mang, nothing is going on as usual. The idea appears to trace back to a November 18, 2013, post by Lorri Anderson on the blog Freedom Outpost. Anderson’s piece was later reposted, excerpted or promoted uncritically on a range of other blogs. (It also received a thorough takedown by blogger David W. Thornton of the Atlanta Conservative Examiner.)

So, let's recap:

Why Obamacare isn’t implementing beheading

1. A doctor can’t bill an insurer for a beheading
2. There is no legal beheading in the United States today, and the president couldn’t change that even if he wanted to.

You. Are. Welcome!

Anyone know how I can contact a death panel I have some people I would like to suggest they consider. Beheading is optional.

I think you are overlooking a key point in all if this--- what IF it were true?

If you mean gretaswire, I just stuck a toe in the water under the Iraq news item to see if it is as open as you think, rick. How about that. The second time I have posted in a forum other than this one in quite a few years -- all at your instigation!! :-)

Quote
The current situation in Iraq is the direct result of George Bush, his administration, the neo-conservative propaganda machine devoted to carrying out a Wilsonian policy of making "the world safe for democracy" using the blood of American GIs and the wealth of an indentured citizenry conned into allowing them to attack, occupy, and engage in nation-building in an Iraq that was no threat to America. It was this same administration that set the date and signed the agreement with the Iraqi government for US withdrawal. Barack Obama may be as useless and as nasty a political cog as his predecessors, but he is not the guilty party relative to Iraq and its current inevitable descent (re-descent) into chaos. All else is rationalization and excuse making.


You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
