Robert Gibbs' Transparent Hedge: "Death Panels... Not in the Bill"

I am watching the White House press conference, now, and Robert Gibbs. His performance is strikingly revealing, to a careful observer of rhetoric and human behavior.

Pardon my paraphrasing, but Gibbs just said the following.

I am quite offended by those who speak of "death panels," because it is simply "not in the bill." [And then in the following statement] "...it is not in the bill."

For a professional political communicator, this is glaringly telling. It shows he does full well know that death panels are in the plan for the use of this bill, by the assignments and Trojan horse provisions in it (and that the potential energy of an overarching death panel has already been established in the Marxist wrought "Stimulus Act"). ^{1, 2}

By the principles of rhetoric, if this were not an established fact for him, he would not have said death panels are "not in the bill," then searched for further words to underscore this assertion, only to weakly resort to repeating this talking point, "not in the bill."

The use of this morbid propogandistic device is a verbal act of "sleight of hand."

Government Controlled Healthcare, a Hand that Rocks, Cradles to Graves

“Medicine is the keystone of the arch of socialism.”
- Vladimir Lenin ^1,2,3

It would be done to us already, if he had his way.

One wonders, is it essential to his mission, to maintain popular support, including a loyal opposition, in a civil society?

Or is Barack Obama assigned an overriding task of "disruption" and destruction?

And, by their polemic behavior, are he and his circle actually trying to foment and escalate conflict, within America?

Do they seek an overall breakdown, eventually so exacerbated that it prepares the way for a new mutation of "the dictatorship of the proletariat?"

If so, what is the the next phase of the plan,
whether Obama politically survives, or not?

"What, then, are the prospects for the emergence of new social movements that mobilize disruptive power?"
- Frances Fox Piven ^{4, 5}

Word Origin & History

ration

1550, "reasoning," later, "relation of one number to another" (1666), then "fixed allowance of food" (1702, often rations, from Fr. ration), from L. rationem (nom. ratio) "reckoning, calculation, proportion" (see ratio). The verb meaning "put (someone) on a fixed allowance" is recorded from 1859; sense of "apportion in fixed amounts" is from 1870. The military pronunciation (rhymes with fashion) took over from the preferred civilian pronunciation (rhymes with nation) during World War I. Rationing is from 1918, from conditions in England during the war.

Simpson: America versus the Nazis - Soros Backed 'Healthcare for America Now'

America Versus the Nazis
by James Simpson

Since grandmothers, WW II veterans and average Americans like you and me are now being branded Nazis for expressing our opposition to the monstrousity Obamacare, Obama has rallied his army of REAL Nazi thugs to protest our protest. Chief among the "spontaneous" counterprotesting groups is "Healthcare for America Now" (HCAN). Why does that acronym sound so much like ACORN? Well because it IS ACORN, and a million other highly organized radical leftist organizations just like it. Ben Johnson at FrontPage Magazine has laid it all out in the following article: "Soros Care."

If you care at all about this issue, or for that matter, the future of this country, it would behoove you to know just how the thugs operate when Americans stand up for themselves. This is a REAL fight, right now. And it is about power, theirs versus America's. Make sure you understand that! They are coming out of hiding, which means they think they will win. We can't allow them to. If the thugs win on this, they can win on anything. And they will.

good work by FrontPageMag, considering they have been apologists for Obama, concerning his clear failure/inability to demonstrate compliance with constitutional, natural born Citizen standards

Sarah Palin on Administration's Health Control Plan; Is She Catching On? Or, Ahead of the Game?

Below are the Facebook comments of Sarah Palin, yesterday, addressing Obama's eugenicist, transnational progressive plan for health control. She did not use such terms, however. Nor did she label them Marxist, nor fascist. But by the adjective she did choose, perhaps Governor Palin indicates she is more "up" on the muted war waged through global Marxofascism, upon righteousness and freedom, than many who have applied such terms.

And depending in part, upon how mush she is in the know, she appears poised to take the lead.

As more Americans delve into the disturbing details of the nationalized health care plan that the current administration is rushing through Congress, our collective jaw is dropping, and we’re saying not just no, but hell no!

The Democrats promise that a government health care system will reduce the cost of health care, but as the economist Thomas Sowell has pointed out, government health care will not reduce the cost; it will simply refuse to pay the cost. And who will suffer the most when they ration care? The sick, the elderly, and the disabled, of course. The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s “death panel” so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their “level of productivity in society,” whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil.

Health care by definition involves life and death decisions. Human rights and human dignity must be at the center of any health care discussion.

Rep. Michele Bachmann highlighted the Orwellian thinking of the president’s health care advisor, Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, the brother of the White House chief of staff, in a floor speech to the House of Representatives. I commend her for being a voice for the most precious members of our society, our children and our seniors.

We must step up and engage in this most crucial debate. Nationalizing our health care system is a point of no return for government interference in the lives of its citizens. If we go down this path, there will be no turning back. Ronald Reagan once wrote, “Government programs, once launched, never disappear. Actually, a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we’ll ever see on this earth.” Let’s stop and think and make our voices heard before it’s too late.
