Lies, Damn Lies and Big Elephant-Ass Lies
from ThinkProgress:



GOP Congressman: There are ‘death counselors’ authorized in the health care bill.

Rep. John Mica (R-FL) told a Florida radio station today that the health care legislation being considered by the House of Representatives will authorize the creation of “death counselors“:

“They create a whole new category,” Mica, a Winter Park Republican, said on WDBO. “There are death counselors. There is authorization for reimbursement for those counselors for Medicare. You have a whole new cottage industry.


Mica joins several other conservatives in promoting the conspiracy theory that health reform legislation is secretly designed to kill old people.

1. Lies, Damn Lies, and Big Elephant-Ass Lies would
make a great title for a book. You should let Sen. Franken use it for his sequel.
