Fact vs. Myth

McSweeney’s offers an amusing rebuttal to the various myths surrounding health care reform – e.g.:
MYTH:
Obamacare™ will ration life-saving medicine away from the elderly and disabled via “Death Panels.”
FACT:
While nothing can replicate the current mercy-driven system of rationing via “Private Insurer Form Letter,” the new proposal certainly does not consign end-of-life decisions to panels of faceless bureaucrats. Rather, they are taken up by exciting, glamorous “Celebrity Death Panels”™ (C-List minimum).
