Obama's Health Future - WSJ.com: "'Look, the first thing for all of us to understand that is we actually have some -- some choices to make about how we want to deal with our own end-of-life care,' Mr. Obama replied. After discussing ways 'we as a culture and as a society [can start] to make better decisions within our own families and for ourselves,' he continued that in general 'at least we can let doctors know and your mom know that, you know what? Maybe this isn't going to help. Maybe you're better off not having the surgery, but taking the painkiller.'"
Of course, tough choices do need to be made at end-of-life - but the issue is WHO makes them? Do you want the President and his army of faceless bureaucrats to decide when doctors should throw in the towel on your mom?
