And it appears the Lord (Obama) has sent the archangel Ezekiel (Emanuel) to exact vengeance upon those who have (a) spent health care dollars, (b) lived too long, (c) had the audacity to think that they could make deeply personal decisions for themselves, without the help of a government employee or program. Don't believe me? Then read about Ezekiel in Deadly Doctors, by Betsey McCaughey, New York Post, 2009 Aug. 17.

I know that the New York Post is a publication of great esteem and that Betsey McCaughey is a highly respected, not-partisan healthcare expert (http://correspondents.theatlantic.com/conor_clarke/2009/07/the_rise_and_fall_and_rise_of_betsy_mccaughey.php),but if you're going to smear people on your site, it might be a good idea to do about 5-7 minutes of research.
Here is a JAMA article cited numerous times in the piece. It's a whole 3 pages, but I think you can handle it. http://www.ipalc.org/Healthcare_Policy/The%20Perfect%20Storm%20of%20Overutilization%20(JAMA%202008).pdf
You may not agree with everything in the piece, but if you're honest you'll admit that McCaughey's credibility is proportional to the intellectual laziness of her readers.
But quoting JAMA is deadly to a blog. Snooze.
