Whenever the subject of abortion or euthanasia is brought up regarding the far-left health care plan, President Obama and the Democrats respond that there is nothing in their health care bill regarding those procedures. However, the truth is that there is nothing in the health care bills being circulated that would prevent taxpayer money being used for abortions, and euthanasia will naturally result from the rationing of health care. If an elderly patient is denied medical treatment for cancer, for example, that is euthanasia -- you are indirectly killing a human being by withholding live saving threatment.
One Biblical reference used President Obama during his "health care sermon" was a part of the Ten Commandments that reads, "Thou shalt not bear false witness." Those who oppose a government health care system are bearing false witness, according to the man who sat in a pew listening to a pastor who said, "God damn, America" and other anti-American utterances, but did not leave that church until Americans found out about the real Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
During his religious teleconference, Obama, like Hillary Clinton before him, used the Ninth Commandment to condemn his detractors and opponents of the Democrat's idea of health care reform. Of course, no one in the media mentioned how many times Obama bore false witness against others such as when he claimed there were physicians amputating patients' arms and legs solely to make more money. Of course, no one in the news media pushed the President to provide even one example of his assertion. And President Obama did not volunteer that information, either. Can I get an Amen?
