Last night, I was in a news stand in Penn Station killing some time before my train came when the cover of Newsweek caught my eye. The exact title of the cover story was "The Case For Killing Granny." Here's a link to the article:
http://www.newsweek.com/id/215291/output/printThe article is written by Evan Thomas, who has gone on the record as saying that Obama is a "sort of g-d." And he goes on about how pesky senior citizens are costing us so much money, and how they just need to be put into hospices with some pain killers to tide them over.
Anyway, I got so mad from looking at that cover and reading the article that I decided to write to Mr. Thomas. I haven't sent it out. I want to get feedback from you guys. So please let me know what you would add or remove from this letter:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mr. Thomas:
They say that prostitution is the world's oldest profession, with
politics coming in at a close second, according to Ronald Reagan. Now
as much as l liked Ronald Reagan, I'm going to have to disagree with
him on that. I believe that mainstream media journalists such as
yourself are in the second oldest profession. At least that's what I
thought when I saw the latest issue of Newsweek where you (lamely)
made the case for "killing granny."
The fact is, you mainstream media people are NOT objective. This past
presidential campaign has shown how blatantly you people are in the
tank for Obama. But thanks to the internet and the blogs, many people
no longer believe your propaganda. After all, it was Newsweek that
published that phony story about a koran supposedly being flushed down
a toilet.
Anyway, Obamacare is all over the news now. Quite a few Democratic
politicians have been getting chewed out by voters who are tired of
being milked like cows, yet still, they and your beloved Obama remain
undeterred. If Mr. Obama wants it, then you, Mr. Thomas act as his
pimp and press agent. I see that in the same issue where you make the
case for killing granny, there's article on why illegal aliens should
get health insurance. Your liberal world view is so warped that you
see no contradiction between giving insurance to people who shouldn't
be in this country to begin with, and killing off American senior
citizens, who have worked and paid taxes for years, and who have
followed the law.
Now before you start pontificating that your job as a journalist is to
be objective, spare me. We know that's a complete lie, being that
most media people vote Democrat. More importantly, you've gone on the
record saying that Obama is a sort of god. It's right here:
Anyway, getting back to your article on why killing granny is a good
idea, the gig is up. You clearly don't just want equality of
opportunity, you want equality of outcome. And since not everyone is
equal or the same, you would force mediocrity on all Americans in
health care and other areas. For you, sacrificing old people is just
fine as long as it's good for the collective. In that case I only
hope that when you get older and infirm, some government bureaucrat
deprives you of all health care. Judging by the looks of you, that
day doesn't seem to be too far off.
Sincerely,
Lisa
