As ThinkProgress has reported, Gov. Jan Brewer (R-AZ) and the GOP-controlled state House have turned a blind eye to the plight of 98 Arizona patients in desperate need of organ transplants. <span style='font-size: 17pt'>Since Brewer enacted painful cuts to the state’s Medicaid program in October, two Arizonans unable to pay for the transplants they needed passed away.</span> After months of appeals and protests, it appears Brewer has finally agreed to set aside a <u>$151 million “uncompensated-care pool </u>to pay health-care providers for ‘life-saving’ procedures, including transplants.” </div></div>

So, by not funding transplants she sent two people to their deaths. Now that's what I call a real <u>DEATH PANEL</u>...... <u><span style="color: #993399">[ of ONE....Q ]</span></u>

Can't wait to hear what Palin has to say about this.

For Brewer, the fact that Courtney’s plight is forced to take a backseat to business tax cuts is “sad but necessary.” </div></div>

So, there you go.

Q..

So why do you support making this nationwide and for everyone?

And back to this.

MEDICAID is a federally mandated program, and Arizona is currently being crippled by the amount of illegals they have to provide care for under the program.

So, you and the left demand that the problem be created and then blame those who tried to avoid the problem from happening.

What a piece of work.

This woman should be tarred and feathered and run out of the country! Amazing, as you say, after all of the RW BS rhetoric about Death Panels, the ONLY REAL DEATH PANEL, IS LED BY A REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR!

She is repulsive, to say the least. One of the reasons why health care costs are not sustainable, again, can be traced straight back to Reagan's Amnesty, which gave us millions of illegals, going to the emergency room, with no health coverage, getting the most expensive health care there is, and then leaving the bill to the rest of us.
