Fox News' Peter Johnson asks if "nothing much has changed" in House health bill "with regard to the death panel"

Peter Johnson (if that's your real name!), it's your turn to pretend that everything you say hasn't already been debunked.

Death panels? Are you kidding? Are you a news network? I guess not!

Why did the moderator bring up 'death panels'? They have been debunked and redebunked all the time. I think that moderator wants to instill fear in us.

In all due fairness, it must get confusing. You're on an opinion show laughing at "Burn in Hell, Pelosi!" one minute and then you're anchoring a news show the next. Plus on both shows you've got it saying "FOX NEWS" on-screen. Maybe this guy couldn't remember if he was doing opinion or news.

Good thing FOX assures us its viewers can easily tell the difference between their news and opinion shows. So, no problem, right?

Fact or opinion, Peter?

Maybe he was asking if nothing has changed in the sense that it hasn't like, actually sprung into existence. "It's still not a real thing, right? Nothing has changed?"

Maybe...?

You're coming late to the table, sir. Death panels have already been debunked. It's already been pointed out that the current private system of health coverage already intervenes in decisions that should be made between doctor and patient. You sound very whiny when you complain that the bill is just too darned long to read. 2000 pages? Oh no! That's, what, three Steven King novels? I could get through that in a couple of days, and it's got much greater word density per page. I won't argue if you contend that Steven King is also more pleasant reading, but c'mon, man! This is your JOB! You get paid to read legislation and vote accordingly.

You think government run health insurance will be a disaster? Well, fortunately, private insurance is left intact by this bill, so they will get a whole new batch of customers, right? Unless your assumption is false on it's face, of course, and you are simply lying to protect enormous corporate profits. I understand some of the crumbs that fall from their table get licked up off the floor by you, and you feel honored by that privilege, but the rest of us, who aren't covered by government health insurance like you are, really need some kind of reform.

It's not just about Americans dying from lack of coverage. Health costs will tank our economy if they are not reined in, and soon. We pay, on average, twice per person what the leading nations pay, and we are ranked 37th in the world on coverage. Short form? We're being bent over as a nation by the health insurance industry, and from the sounds of things, you are making your thirty pieces of silver pimping us out.

His assumptions are correct. Nothing has changed. They still don't exist.

I guess he's right. There were no death panels before and there are no death panels now so nothing much has changed in that regard.

Idiot. Tell me how did this guy became a lawyer? And why is he on Foxnews? I think Roger Ailes meet these people in rightwing cocktail parties or something.
