Guess what! Sarah Palin was right- there ARE death panels. Run by Republicans.

Remember the story about organ transplant funding being cut in Arizona? Here's a human face for it: Tonight on Countdown, Keith Olbermann interviewed two men who have been denied transplants because of this 'budget cut', and their families.

Warning: Potentially triggery.

The shit that Palin thinks up are just things that she backs, but she doesn't want anyone else doing it if her party can't.

NPR did an interview with Randy Shepherd about this two days ago, it IS being mentioned by the nazi media circles

disgusting. Jan Brewer is going to have these men's blood on her hands if they're unable to get help :(

Worst part is, if they don't get help, she's going to continue blaming 'Obamacare'. If they do get help, Brewer can tout as the right choice to cut the program, since they got 'bootstrappy help'.

Ugh. This woman actually makes me want to use 'DIAF'. And I try desperately not to use the phrase.

i don't think that jan brewer cares. the commentator who said that they pull this shit on the people who can't fight back and that austerity only hurts the poor.

there is no shared sacrifice.

Jan Brewer, honestly, is evil. I hesitate to use that term for most people, because they at least have things that can be explained. Jan Brewer can't even try to explain away her own shit. She is honestly an evil, horrible woman, and it goes to show that there are a lot of people in Arizona that think that evil is just fine as long as it serves their interests.

How far Americans have fallen.

I see her as more stupid than evil to be honest :| ::replays Brewer's Governor debate in my head::

angry_chick November 20 2010, 02:33:06 UTC

She's both. She's not capable of a coherent thought, but it's extremely likely that Jan Brewer knows about this being put into law, supports it, and doesn't care. She steps on the rights of so many people, basically, yes, condemning others to death.

This whole thing is just evil as fuck to me, especially when you consider other things that she's put into law and even reduced funding for mental health services in Arizona - even affecting her own son. She's dumber than a box of rocks, but she has absolutely no conscience whatsoever.

I completely agree.

Its only going to get worse in Arizona :\

At least Countdown was interesting tonight. Continued TSA outrage and the George W Bush war crime arrest in a foreign country were good.

I was pleased to learn that I am not the only one who thinks the Mayor of London and Tweety look disturbingly similar.

But the one moment of joy I had tonight was when in the beginning of this segment he wished one of the kids a happy birthday. Her face just lit up like a star at that.

...and then I promptly got seriously depressed as the segment went on.
