9/11 Denial is similar to Holocaust Denial, except it writes off, excuses, or explains away two missing skyscrapers, four missing airplanes, and 3000 missing Americans instead of six million missing Jews, three million missing Polish Catholics, and hundreds of thousands of associated Gypsies, Slavs, and other Holocaust victims. Aktion T4 ObamaCare advocate and 9/11 denier Keith Ellison just went on record as effectively advocating euthanasia for senior citizens to save money on health care. For the record, here is what Keith Ellison said about 9/11.

“It’s almost like the Reichstag fire in Nazi Germany, kind of reminds me of that. After the Reichstag was burned, they blamed the Communists for it and put the leader of that country (Hitler) in a position where he could basically have the authority to do whatever he wanted. The fact is that I’m not saying [Sept. 11] was a U.S. plan, or anything like that because, you know, that’s how they put you in the nut-box-dismiss you.”

Everybody knows that “I’m not saying…” is a way to raise a question as to suggest exactly the idea the person says he is not suggesting: that 9/11 was an inside job by the Bush Administration, the Joooooooz, or some other perpetrator other than the known or actual one. Now here is what Keith Ellison recommends for senior citizens, aka Useless Eaters, aka Life Not Worthy of Life (”Lebensunwertes Leben”).

To begin with, Ellison’s deliberate non-response to a question underscores his lack of character, ethics, and integrity:

MAN: Representative Ellison, are you willing to put your family on this government system which is different from the one you currently use? If you are not willing to put your family on the system, why should the rest of us?

ELLISON: All right, next point. (cheers and applause)

Next comes Ellison’s recommendation for a Final Solution to the rising costs of medical care for America’s senior citizens, most of whom have paid tens of thousands of dollars into the Medicare system during their working lives.

ELLISON: We ought to all have a conversation with our loved ones, not about money, but about dignity. So what the bill says, what it calls for is that you have a conversation with your provider and encouraged to have a conversation with your family about things like living will, do not resuscitate, things like that. Now look, it happens to be true that a lot of expense is in end-of-life care, but some of that expense is associated with the fact that the family is in a guilt trap because they don’t know — they want to do everything they can to save Dad or Mom.

We advocate living wills, but their purpose is to avoid the physical suffering that often results from futile efforts to sustain life that can no longer be sustained–not to save money for the insurer, Medicare, or “society.” Ellison begins by saying that the conversation is not about money but dignity but, because he is clearly too stupid to avoid tripping himself up with his own lies, his next sentence reveals that it is all about money: “that expense is associated with the fact that the family is in a guilt trap because they don’t know — they want to do everything they can to save Dad or Mom.” If our language sounds disrespectful, it is because we do not respect a 9/11 denier like Keith Ellison, and it is impossible for us to pretend that we do. This reinforces our perception that Barack Obama’s health care plan is nothing less than Aktion T4, a program that saves money by eliminating what its planners call “life unworthy of life.”
