Previously:

Limbaugh falsely claimed he has "not used the word 'death panels,' except in quoting Sarah Palin"

Limbaugh adopts de facto death panel logic: "they sure as hell are not life panels"

Limbaugh again cites discredited McCaughey for proof that "death panels" exist

      Can he point to page 43 instead?

      He also can't point to a page where it states that dragons blood will not be used to cure athlete's foot.

        Now you're just being silly. Dragon's blood is used to heal wounds and stop post-partum bleeding.

      Love it how whenever Tubbo here is right, it's always in a twisted way like this.

      Of course, there's always something vital he misses, like the fact that the phrase "death panel" is a fabrication of fearmongerers, and to put it in for their sake would be ridiculous.

      Maybe if Obama can point to page 784, where it says Rush gets all the cake and drugs he wants, he'll finally shut up. Or not.

        Indeed. I mean, show me the page that says there aren't any mandatory firing squads or compulsory sex changes or genocidal cleansings? Well, he can't. You can only prove what the bill HAS, not what it LACKS. Although comments such as this prove Rush lacks a brain.

      That is one of the weakest, most illogical arguments I've ever heard. It also doesn't say Ann Coulter is not really a man in drag. Does that mean she is?

      He also can't point to a page and say "See? There are death panels."

      Page 44 also does not say that "Rush Limbaugh isn't still on Oxycontin."

      Well, to be fair, Obama doesn't have a plan because presidents don't write legislation at all. Probably because in this three-branch government, that's not their job. And they're not real smart and don't know everything about everything like drug-addled talk show hosts do.

      Wait - that's not fair to talk show hosts, either. I admit, I neglected to consider that, when opining on issues with which they're less than fluent such as economics or science or medicine, talk show hosts often will defer to outside experts like Newt Gingrich and Joe the Plumber.
