URGENT: 'Creeping Euthanasia'<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
Pray Fervently Against ObamaCare!    
 
"Some trust in chariots, and some in horses;
But we will remember the name of the LORD our God." (Ps 20:7)
 
"Hear a just cause, O LORD,
Attend to my cry;
Give ear to my prayer…"(Ps 17:1)
 
UPDATE:
 
Hallelujah!  We have a good report! 
 
The "Health" care bill has been DELAYED in the Senate.  It will not have a vote in that chamber until the Fall.  God has heard our Prayers! 
 
Bad Reports:
 
Abortion Mandates still remain in the proposed legislation.  Abortion must be specifically excluded or all is lost!  (see Excerpts below)
 
Seniors are Seriously at Risk.  The result of the current legislation will be that older people will be denied life-saving or life-prolonging procedures in order to save money.  President Obama suggests seniors "take painkillers" instead. (see Excerpts below)
 
Technological innovations and research will be discouraged (see below).
 
All medical care will be seriously delayed and rationed.
 
Because President Obama seems to dislike profits, Small Businesses will be targets of high taxation.
 
PRAY!
 
Please PRAY with GREAT URGENCY!  It's not a time for being passive! 
 
Thank God for the Delay.  More, Lord!
 
CRY OUT!  For God to EXPOSE all the abominations in the legislation;
 
CRY OUT!  For Abortion to be specifically EXCLUDED!  (Most Important!)
 
Please pass this on to your own lists and prayer partners.
 
Pray with all your heart for the wonderful activists working to stop Obama and his evil co-conspirators. 
 
Excerpts:
 
GovernmentCare's Assault on Seniors.
 
"[L]egislation now being rushed through Congress-H.R. 3200 and the Senate Health Committee Bill-will reduce access to care, pressure the elderly to end their lives prematurely, and doom baby boomers to painful later years."
 
"Slipped into the bill was substantial funding for comparative effectiveness research, which is generally code for limiting care based on the patient's age."
 
"When comparative effectiveness research appeared in the stimulus bill, Rep. Charles Boustany <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Jr., (R., La.) a heart surgeon, warned that it would lead to 'denying seniors and the disabled lifesaving care.'"
 
[I]t ensures that seniors are counseled on end-of-life options…  In Oregon, some cancer patients are being denied care by the state that could extend their lives and instead are afforded the benefit of physician-assisted suicide."
 
Democrat Proposals to Create a Federal Health Board (no link)
 
"Last week the Administration sent to Congress draft legislation creating an 'Independent Medicare Advisory Council' (IMAC), which would create a new Presidentially- appointed board empowered to make recommendations on cost saving proposals.  These cost-saving proposals could include denying care to the elderly because an unelected board of bureaucrats determines the treatment recommended by physicians is too expensive."
~Rep. Mike Pence, R-IN
 
Obamacare for Illegal Aliens
 
"Big Nanny Democrats want to ration health care for everyone in America -- except those who break our immigration laws." (i.e. illegal aliens)
 
Government Threat to World-Class Medicine
 
"Most Americans live within an hour's drive of a world-class medical facility filled with expertly trained individuals and state-of-the-art technology delivering medical miracles every day."
"In a land founded on liberty, it is wrong that the federal government would dictate to doctors what medical treatments can, or worse, cannot be given to their patients."
"…'the stifling of innovation by excessive, intrusive audit ... the shackling of doctors by prescribing guidelines, referral guidelines and protocols"
"[O]ur country will see the long waiting lines for care, patients will lose trust in their doctors, and the medical discovery and innovation that has saved and enhanced lives across the country will end."
           
Quote from Marjorie Dannenfelser, President of the Susan B. Anthony List, July 22, 2009
 
"Today, Obama told Katie Couric that the abortion issue is just a 'distraction' and yesterday, Rep. Woosley said in a committee hearing that abortion is no different than a tonsillectomy as she wondered why we were even talking about abortion."  
 
Democrat Health Care Plan Will Mandate and Fund Abortion Coverage (no link)
"Democrats, including the President himself, have pushed for abortion coverage as part of health care reform.  Candidate Obama pledged his support for abortion coverage as part of his health care reform package, stating: '[I]n my mind reproductive health care is essential health care, basic care so it is at the center, the heart of the plan that I propose.'"
~Rep. Eric Cantor, R-VA
 
Destroying private health insurance
 
"Many rules proposed in the Democrats' health care reform plan will ensure that private health insurance won't be around for long."
 
"It's easy to see where things are headed. With more and more rules on how health insurance can and cannot be offered, the industry will head toward a government one-size-fits-all system."
