Whoops Again

The Republicans are still flipping their shit over the fact that their 18 year health insurance plan with Cigna covered abortion services. And now, ThinkProgress has discovered that Cigna also offers end-of-life counseling services.

ThinkProgress has noticed that Cigna, the RNC’s health insurance provider, also urges beneficiaries to think about end-of-life services. Cigna’s website has a page called “Care at the End of Life,” which covers topics such as how to talk with “loved ones” about “end-of-life choices” and whether to stop life-prolonging treatment...

Death panels, in Sarah Palin's celebudoof vernacular.

For months we had to endure the main stream media flail the 'death panel' meme as if it were an actual, serious point of contention.

They need to cover this. A lot. They owe us.

It would have been better for this objectionable (*snerk*) part of the policy to have been discovered first, then the abortion coverage. Always build up to the big laugh. (I'm imagining wingnut heads exploding like The Gentlemen's, only with red-white-and-blue goo rather than green.)

Someone needs to check whether Cigna confirms citizenship before enrolling someone under the RNC policy.
