And now you are.
No - Johnson didn't politicize this, he did use it to warn others that once Obamacare is totally in, these problems are going to get worse. He was only telling the truth. We don't listen to Media Matters anyway, they're going to say shit like this even when it's not true just to get someone like you riled up.
Now can we go on without you making this post political?

If that's true, then they will be addressed and fixed.
That's because you are a willing dupe for RW media, who constantly drums into your head that government can only be bad.And now you are.

I really hope you're right.....but I don't have too much faith in anyone running our government, either side, to do the right thing.

What if someone else's baby had a 90% chance? Would you think that your 10% chance is worth more?
Do you think I would sacrifice the life of my child, all based on that logic? If my child has any chance to live, that is good enough for me.
Are you saying that your child's 10% chance is worth more than my child's 90% chance? Are you saying that your child deserves to live more than my child?

Bullshit....
And your a willing dupe for the LW media....who constantly tells you what a great job your president and his administration are doing and you believe it, no matter what proof is given to you otherwise. I have a friend that sounds just like you, and she has told me that yes, she's a lost cause, she will NEVER admit the Democrats are wrong at anything (HER WORDS!).

I go by facts. You run from facts.
Some hard questions...and no easy answers.
Well, there are easy answers, just not ones people like.
Such as, Doctors have the right to harvest usable organs without checking with family.
We bury or cremate enough usable organs to fill the transplant list every year. It's just most folks don't sign their donor cards, and by the time the doctors get to harvesting, it's usually too late.
If people don't sign their cards, they should be presumed donors.

I don't know about where you live, but here (at least in Michigan) if you sign to be a donor, there's the word "donor" with a heart next to in on the front of your license. If it's not there, then you don't want to donate and the can't decide to do it anyway.
I cannot thank the Lord. Nor can I say a prayer for her. This is all very sad with no winners. I could not be happy that Sarah's life was bought with the life of someone else. It makes me glad I'm not a donor.
I guess we have to trust that the Lord knows best. I understand how this would cause mixed emotions. It's sad someone died. And it's wonderful that a life could be saved. We don't really know God's will.
It is sad because someone else who needed the lung more was pushed down the list to make way for her.

Unlike you, Noomi, I believe in miracles.
If you believed in Miracles, then you'd be praying to your Sky Pixie for a solution, not waiting for SCIENCE to fix the problem.
According to you? Like we should live under the limits you impose on reason and faith imposed by one with little understanding of one, and none of the other. How about you live within your own limits, and get out of the way of the rest of us. We'll leave the light on for ya.
Why can't you see that HER CASE WAS MORE IMPORTANT!? I guess that's a stupid question though. Nobody cares that she lived, but that someone else died. Wonderful.
Geese louise! It was because of her situation that she shot up the list!
Yes, she was important, and needed that surgery, but WHAT IF AN ADULT HAD DIED BECAUSE SHE TOOK THEIR PLACE?
You REFUSE to answer that question, and I can't help but wonder why.
The reason being, is I fail to see how that matters! There, you satisfied? I feel sorry for our young ones, the have not an advocate in the world of USMB
Needed it more?? Sorry.. this girl was just as much in need as anyone on the top of the adult list
This is about the most ignorant thing I have seen on this board today.. and I have seen a lot of ignorant things
Hey...when you find out than an adult, or other child, died because Sarah got the lungs first, THEN come back and argue your point. Because right now, you have no point...you have only a "what if".
Wow....then why don't we just let ALL THE CHILDREN DIE? Would that solution make you happier? Why don't you just admit you hate children?
Until we hear that someone else died because this little girl took those lungs, you should just STFU.
Funny I asked that question before, got the same "you would rather kill the adult" line.
Would it interest you to know that Sarah had been waiting 18 months for a new pair of lungs? What if I told you that many such children on that list have died because healthier adults were picked ahead of them? What if I further told you that the list does not work via the "who is next in line" basis, but rather which patient is the sickest and in most dire need of care? Sarah happened to be the sickest on the list!
One more tidbit, nobody actually died on that list because she got to the lungs first. If you think I'm full of it, Google is a good place to look to confirm my claims.
But would 5 more years with their daughter mean more to them than having her die like this? I agree with you majorly. And I acknowledge the disease may still kill her. But as a man of faith, I believe God can do anything, and I pray he heals her completely. Hope is a great thing, miracles are awesome too.
Um....I'm agreeing with you Templar

She was first on the pediatric list, NOT on the adult list. There is a whole string of adults who have ALL been knocked back one place on the list because a child was deemed more valuable than they were.
