Quote of the Day – August 15, 2009
Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, a physician in real life, says it's not "outrageous" at all to fear government "death panels" who would decide who gets well and who doesn't. He has offered three amendments to whatever emerges as Obamacare to be "an absolute prohibition" on rationing based the comparative effectiveness of treatments, as judged by the government.
"Why would you not want an absolute prohibition," he asks. "Because you ultimately plan to ration care. Their plan is to control costs by limiting options."
