the_archfiendThis post by Orac (with quite a bit of source material from Arthur Caplan) effectively lays it on the line concerning the growing insanity of the health care "debate", since it's an especially good example of Godwin's Law in action.
It's also nice to know that ex-Governor Sarah Increasingly Weird (R-404 Not Available) isn't above throwing fellow Republicans under the bus when she's ranting and raving about nonexistent "death panels", as Ezra Klein shows here and here. In many ways, this is all just more proof of the truth of Mencken's dictum that "the only way a reporter should look at a politician is down".
