Betsy McCaughey, the Republicrook who apparently invented the death panels concept, without using that term, was on The Daily Show today. She made a total fool of herself and performed even worse in the complete interview on the website. Though the conversation went on for a long time, this was the basic result:

Betsy: Isn't it terrible that Congress would write such a hideous thing in a bill?

Jon Stewart: Yes, it would be horrible if they had written it. But where did they write it?

BM (and she actually is a BM, at least in her mind): Here it is on page ... (And she reads the offending words).

JS: But that doesn't say what you say it says.

BM: Well, what about when they say...

And, of course, it doesn't say that, either.

I don't think she is actually as stupid as her performance would indicate. She is just so filled with hate for Americans and their government that her eyes are filling in words that aren't there.
