"What lies?"

The only "death panels" are run by the insurance companies and staffed with bean counters. None of the existing bills call for one. So talk about government run "death panels" is, well, unhinged.
"or you're not for a government takeover of health care"

That isn't in the cards either.

"The biggest lie I've heard is the notion that the protests are being sponsored by the health insurance industry. There's no excuse for that lie."

There may be no excuse, but there is evidence. So I am not sure it qualifies as a lie. The extent may be exaggerated, but it isn't a total falsehood.

The whole discourse has gotten so weird that we have such nuttiness as seniors getting concerned about the government taking control of Medicare...
