Roger Ebert's Journal: Archives

AN EXCELLENT LIE
"Death panels" is such an excellent term. You know exactly what it means, and therefore you know you're against them. Debate over. This term more than anything else seems to have unified the opposition to the Obama health care proposals. It fuels the anger that has essentially shut down "town hall" meetings intended for the discussion of the issues. Of course the term is inspired by a lie.
(CHICAGO SUN-TIMES, suggested by MOLLY THOMAS)
