2009.12.18 Death Panels

Obama claimed there was no "death panels"... just a panel that would make your life and death medical decisions for you. Obama claimed there was no "death panels"... just a panel that would make your life and death medical decisions for you. Fake Fact Checker PolitiFact came in and called the claim of "Death Panels" the "Lie of the year", because it wasn't the panel but the disease/malady that would kill you. The panel would just deny you life saving treatment that would have changed the outcome. ℹ️ Info           ~ Aristotle Sabouni Created: 2019-04-01

A great example of carrying Obama's water, is to take something that's true like Obamacare (ACA) has clauses where there will be "death panel" -- e.g. government bureaucrats and administrators will be on a board determining what care someone should/shouldn't be entitled to, and is making life and death decisions over patient coverage.

Instead of ignoring it, they write long winded distracting articles that try to convince their base that "Death Panel" is the "Lie of year", because it's not a panel that will vote to kill you, it's a panel that will vote to deny you coverage and the disease/malady will kill you.

The longer a PolitiFact article is, the more wrong (political) it usually is.
