Does electing paranoid schizophrenics as our leaders make us safer?

The old zombie death panel lie is baaack. Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann have breathed new life into it the ‘deather’ corpse. Now, though, it’s not end of life counseling, it’s the Medicare Advisory Board. Wow, wouldn’t we be a whole lot safer if only we could keep the people who have to run Medicare from getting any expert advice from a panel of the nation’s leading doctors and health care experts?

How paranoid and suspicious of everything ‘government’ do politicians have to get before they pose a clear and present danger when given leadership power?
