Ablogination

Republican Congressional Representative from Ohio and minority leader, John Boehner, staunchly supported the the fictitious “Death Panel” accusations leveled against Health Reform.
Now, we find that Boehner chairs the Congressional Republican Death Panel in the House and Senate.
And they have killed again.

Sadly…we find that the lack of a public Health Care Option has again taken a young life.
A beautiful young woman, full of life and hope for her future, has died because she had no health care and could not afford any.

Her name was Kimberly Young. She is a resident of Rep. Boehner’s congressional district in the state of Ohio.
Kimberly contracted Swine Flu, and being unable to pay for treatment and justifiably frightened of the prospect of accumulating massive debt due to the out of control costs of health care, has died.

Another life that could have and should have been saved.

Kimberly Young: Victim of Republican politics

From Think Progress:

A 22-year-old woman from Oxford, Ohio, died from swine flu on Wednesday. Kimberly Young graduated from Miami University in December and continued to live in Oxford, Ohio, within Minority Leader John Boehner’s congressional distrct. Reports now indicate that after initially getting sick, Young put off treatment because she was uninsured:

Young became ill about two weeks ago, but didn’t seek care initially because she didn’t have health insurance and was worried about the cost, according to Brent Mowery, her friend and former roommate. […]

On Tuesday, Sept. 22, Young’s condition suddenly worsened and her roommate drove her to McCullough Hyde Memorial Hospital in Oxford, where she was flown in critical condition to University Hospital in Cincinnati.

“That’s the most tragic part about it. If she had insurance, she would have gone to the doctor,” Mowery said.

How much longer will it be before the supposed “good” people in our gov’t place their collective foot on the neck of the serpent and do what is right for our citizens?

Once again,

Matt: 25 36-40 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me,
36
naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, in prison and you visited me.’
37
Then the righteous 16 will answer him and say, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink?
38
When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you?
39
When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?’
40
And the king will say to them in reply, ‘Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.

Read it. You fake-ass, fair weather “Christians".
Read it! ….And weep. If you have any semblance of a soul at all, weep. If not for others, then for yourselves.
