I deleted your comment...
maybe you were being "glib"
or you thought you were funny...
I have no idea...


Keith's father is supposedly dying....
The story he told...is real..
I have seen it before where a relative asks to die...
it happens to many ....
all of us that have lost relatives know that it is painful to lose a loved one as they fight/battle a catastrophic illness...

It is a time to have Compassion...
and Wisdom....
not just for Keith ...
but for each other...

You may not like Keith-
but he has fought harder to help get the Truth out about OUR HCR battle , and Health Care Crisis than ANY other MSM or Journalist.....

and he did this while taking care of his dad all these monthes...

As a Nurse of many years, who has worked Hospice-that he did this while caring for a dying Father shows a level of Courage that is immeasurable....

HCR Facts :

>50 Million are without HC or any level of Care at this time or Insurance.

30Million have been cancelled or denied care due to PreExisting Conditions.

17,000 LOSE Insurance a day ....and lost HC...

47,000 die each year with NO HC ....in OUR Country... that is shameful...
