Obama wants to kill Stephen Hawking

A publication called Investor's Business Daily has broadsided Obama, complaining that a U.S. national health plan borrows too much from the UK. Because in the UK, according to IBD, the National Health Service selectively culls the herd.
People such as scientist Stephen Hawking wouldn't have a chance in the UK, where the National Health Service would say the life of this brilliant man, because of his physical handicaps, is essentially worthless."
Right.

Does Investor's Business Daily know that under the UK plan Stephen Hawking would actually not be killed, but in fact he would be fine? We know this because Stephen Hawking is BRITISH and he receives his treatment through BRITAIN'S NATIONAL HEALTH SERVICES. He is also, currently, alive.

The "brilliant man" himself has confirmed this:
"I wouldn't be here today if it were not for the NHS," he told The Guardian. "I have received a large amount of high-quality treatment without which I would not have survived."
Obviously, if Obama wanted Hawking dead, he had his chance on Tuesday when he had his hands around Hawking's neck as he presented him with the Medal of Freedom.

The more pertinent question is 'how can anyone trust the recommendations of Investor's Business Daily when they're obviously so full of shit?'

Bang-up research by an investment publication, that by its nature should be built around research. Our friend Dr. Jones would have at least checked Wikipedia.
