The Rep. said that "seniors will be put in a position of being put to
death by their government". Care to defend that?

Point of order: It's not "BS". There's a clear trail of public evidence
showing that the ****uplicans are urging their faithful marching morons to
disrupt town hall meetings for the sake of politics. Whether the vested
interests in the health care industry are involved is murkier, but with so
many rumors flying, it's hard to discount the possibility out of hand. Or at
least it's hard if you are capable of using human logic.
