American Family Association Spreads Misinformation About Healthcare

I am so infuriated by this new barage of falsehood from the AFA. They are now claiming, incredulously, that the proposed healthcare plan will ration coverage for senior citizens, and penalise those whom do not sign up for the public option. http://action.afa.net/Detail.aspx?id=2147487036 This is blatantly false. http://industry.bnet.com/healthcare/10001037/no-rationing-say-experts-but-public-doesnt-hear/ http://www.factcheck.org/2009/08/twenty-six-lies-about-hr-3200/ http://www.factcheck.org/2009/08/rncs-bill-of-rights/ http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/09/08/fines-proposed-for-going_n_279724.html President Obama does not favor fining those who opt out buying insurance. The reason that Max Baucus suggested making health coverage mandatory, like auto insurance, is that many people do not seek insurance until they need it. The HMOs do not want to be saddled down with covering those with pre-existing conditions. Having everyone pay in to a health plan, would help to pay down the cost of covering everyone. And no one's care will be rationed either. I really do not get what conservatives are getting at. First they complain about the high costs of the government paying for medical expenses, then they claim that the elderly, and disabled, will be neglected. Also how can they claim to be christians when they bear false witness against others? I think that the religious leaders should stay out of public policy. After all this is not Iran. And they should not be speaking on things they know nothing about. They should just stick to God, and leave the government to our elected representitives.
