Keith Olbermann, healthcare reform, and “life panels”

The only way to ever truly get a credible and authoritative voice concerning an issue is when you’ve personally experienced it, either yourself, or through a loved one. And this is what gives this latest Special Comment by Keith Olbermann that extra “hear me!” power: you can tell the man knows exactly what the fuck he’s talking about, which gives him the foresight to know exactly what needs to be done.

I still think he was too soft on the soulless, politicizing, morally bankrupt whores who speak with only one voice: that of whichever health insurance company is kissing their ass the most lecherously. (But, I blame the FCC for that.) These self-serving ghouls should be no more than used car salesmen. Not powerful political figures at the helm of the entire country’s direction regarding the basic, fundamental and humane right to healthcare.
