(THIS IS A MISNOMER WHEN THAT ONE'S MIDDLE NAME IS DESTRUCTION
IT SHOULD BE THAT ONE MAN SPEAKS WITH A FORK TONGUE)
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been softening the ground for this Obama policy for some months. The U.S. Department of State indicates on its website that it has completed a "policy review" and "tribal consultation" on the indigenous peoples treaty in recent weeks.

WHEN YOU HAVE LIBERALS BELIEVE IN ABORTION OF BABIES AND NOW WHEN OLDER THEY WANT TO ABORT YOUR LIFE, IT'S NO WONDER THEY THINK THIS WAY. LIFE TO THESE PEOPLE ARE MEANINGLESS AS SO FAR COMPARED FROM WE THE PEOPLE WHERE LIFE IS HELD PRECIOUS UNTIL DEATH.
SARAH PALIN WAS RIGHT.
White House attempts to quiet revived talk of 'death panels'
By Jason Millman - 12/27/10 09:31 AM ET
The Obama administration is trying to quiet talk about so-called “death panels” after The New York Times reported Sunday that a new Medicare regulation includes incentives for end-of-life-care planning.
The Medicare policy will pay doctors for holding end-of-life-care discussions with patients, according to the Times. A similar provision was dropped from the new healthcare reform law after Republicans accused the administration of withholding care from the sick, elderly and disabled.
Sarah Palin, a possible Republican presidential candidate in 2012, sparked controversy last summer when she said the reform law's end-of-life provision would create “death panels,” in which “government bureaucrats” would decide who receives care. President Obama countered the claim by saying his administration didn’t want to “pull the plug on grandma."

Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-Ore.), author of Section 1233, was delighted. "Mr. Blumenauer's office celebrated 'a quiet victory,' but urged supporters not to crow about it," reports the New York Times. Deathly quiet. In early November, his office sent an e-mail plea to supporters: "We would ask that you not broadcast this accomplishment out to any of your lists . . . e-mails can too easily be forwarded." They had been lucky that "thus far, it seems that no press or blogs have discovered it. . . . The longer this [regulation] goes unnoticed, the better our chances of keeping it."
So much for the Democrats' transparency - and for their repeated claim that the more people learn what is in the health-care law, the more they will like it. Turns out ignorance is the Democrats' best hope.
