      So we've got one liar, citing another liar as "proof" that death panels exist.

      Nice...

      Sadly, there are some in America that believe this crap, why? Because these guys say it louder and more often. And just because they do say it louder and more often, doens't make it any less false.

        Actually, they do exist. They're referred to as insurance companies.

      The echo chamber never dies, it merely takes a short break at an IHOP then resumes echoing.

      Limbaugh cites McCaughey who cites senators who cite the Lewin Group, a wholly owned subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group, who then cite that they are a respected authority on healthcare issues because senators cite them on the floor of the Senate. Round and round she goes, and ne'er a fact doth be injected into the debate by conservatives who feel entitled to their own set of facts.

      You're really behind the curve, Rush. McCaughey's BS was destroyed by Jon Stewart last week and she was forced to resign her job in disgrace.

      Hey, Rush needs a dumb broad. Let him compliment her, maybe he'll get lucky. Even a Limbaugh gets laid every now and then for free.
      Normally, he pays
