I don’t know why people other than his employers at the NYTimes continue to think of Brooks as a conservative. He is barely a RINO. This weenie is the David Gergen of his generation, someone the MSM turns to when criticism of the left needs to be balanced by criticism from the right.

The Left is no longer interested in debate (never was). Confronted with disagreement, it moves immediately to de-legitimize its opponents through character assassination, legal harassment, media intimidation and ridicule — anything to avoid responding to the substance of opposition.

Obama doesn’t simply claim his critics are mistaken, wrong or even mis-guided. Instead, our Mountebank-in-Chief accuses any who disagree with deliberately ‘spreading mis-information’ or trying to obstruct something so obviously good and desirable that it should be beyond examination. This despite skepticism in poll after poll. His elitist shills sneer at the way opponents are dressed, claim free assembly is ‘astro-turfing’ or play the race card.

Anyway, what was that saying about how first they ignore you, then they laugh at you . . . and eventually you win?

Gibbs will lie all by himself, thanks. He doesn’t require Brooks make a liar out of him.

The world can be changed by man’s endeavor, and that this endeavor can lead to something new and better .No man can sever the bonds that unite him to his society simply by averting his eyes . He must ever be receptive and sensitive to the new ; and have sufficient courage and skill to novel facts and to deal with them .

“You’re on thin ice” is a threat. The executive of the federal government is threatening people for speaking words?

The program was, and is, Aktion T-4.

As for Brooks, who are these people who think he’s a conservative? He’s not.

There are plenty of reasons to think carefully about the twisted German medical system of the 1930s and 1940s and compare it to what the president and Congress are proposing. Especially concerning are “death panels” — only part of the House bill I have read, p. 429ff.

I am most concerned about patient CONSENT.

The enormous machinery of informed consent we now have in our medical system traces back to the Nuremberg war crimes tribunals after WWII, specifically to the “Medical Case.”

Here is a PDF link to an influential article about consent and medical ethics abuses in American research prior to about 1965.

Dr. Henry K. Beecher wrote this in New England Journal of Medicine, v. 274, June 16, 1966. Very influential paper here in USA.
