The Bill, sponsored by Sens Kerry and Hatch, would make killing children like 11-year-old Madeline Neumann a legal, federally-funded practice as a part of the US Healthcare system.
Of course, this is already a part of Medicare, but if the Kerry/Hatch amendment clears, it will become rampant and more children will die painful needless deaths at the hands of mentally incompetent parents, all on your dime.
I will be on CBS radio’s “Overnight America with John Grayson”, aired nationally, probably tonight. Check local listings for times.

A stone age Bedouin says his god told him not to eat blood, then a few thousand years later a cult says no blood transfusions.
A crazy old Victorian lady gets over a head cold, credits god and starts a cult that claims sickness is an illusion and doctors unnecessary.
Nut job faith healers say unruly children are the result of demonic possession for which exorcism is the only cure, a few kids die, but what the hell.
What all these cults share in common is the ability to practice child abuse with the full blessings of the law, it is monstrous to say the least.
It is my sincerest hope that when history looks back upon this latest atheist movement, it will recall its victories in the rescue of children from the influence and torture at the hands of deists.
Well said Gary!
