Grandma Killers Want Access to Your Bank Account

A provision that would “pull the plug on grandma”, Grassley said at a town hall meeting, is one that he cannot support. Wow, what a saint that Grassley, one of three negotiating a possible bipartisan health care agreement.

 

This is only one of the many rumors that are being pumped out faster than Mariah Carey’s stomach. And they’re working. Step aside “Mean Girls” there’s a new popular clique in school and it’s called “Mean White Haired Dudes”.

 

All over the nation, people are FREAKING out at town hall meetings, making this the decade of slightly less boring town hall meetings. The issue is already an emotional one but now these rumors have the confused and less informed, terrified.

 

And when I say freaking out, I mean you got little old ladies screaming, waving canes, and general 40 year old virgin type violence. There’s even gramps leaping out of his seat, wielding a walker and making every effort to fit in with the ballistic crowd so no one notices he has absolutely no idea where he is, let alone who’s president. And you know why he’s afraid to admit he’s got dementia? Because he’s got dementia! And also because he doesn’t want to be taken to a hospital (where they pull plugs). Grandmas and Grandpas beware! Or don’t beware, that may just be a rumor.

 

Not only is the business of the health care bill baffling for many Americans but now they have no clue what’s going on. People have given up all hope of making sense of it. Instead of defending themselves with knowledge many have decided to go with the more familiar coping mechanism, anger or fear.

 

Just the other day a woman asked Rep. Allen Boyd at one of these meetings, if health care reform proposals would force people to allow government access their bank accounts. Of course the Democrats deny this but just in case, CNN hired fact checkers to determine whether the bank access rumor is true or not, and it’s not.

 

"It's hyperbolic, it's fear-mongering, it's actually politics at its worst," Daschle said Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press." "That's the kind of thing that generates the kind of anger and fear and anxiety that people have today."

 

Wendell Potter is a former insurance company communications executive and exposed the insurance industry practice of deliberately spreading false information to disrupt the debate.

TO do this apparently the insurance industry hires public relations firms that create front groups to try to "destroy health care reform” said Potter.
