"Death" panels?
Screw that....that was a figment of Sarah Palin's imagination, yet it derailed the entire debate about end of life care and tilted the entire field against healthcare reform and significantly watered down the final bill...
"Deaf" panels, anyone?
These actually exist NOW, yet no one on the left sees this obvious parallel and messaging opportunity to do to the right what they so often do to the left - turn your opponent's strength into a weakness! I am sick to death of the left constantly passing by the obvious and failing to make the visceral connections that should be made to combat the asshats on the right!
I want to know which insurance company it is that has created and begun using Deaf panels to prevent future Americans from being able to hear!
