Contradicting O’Reilly, Cavuto acknowledges Fox pushed health care jail-time falsehood.
SUMMARY: Neil Cavuto admitted that Fox News has pushed the false claim that under the health care reform legislation individuals can be sent to jail for not having health insurance, saying: “I’ve researched this and a number of Fox personalities had made that comment.” Cavuto’s acknowledgment contradicts Bill O’Reilly’s false claim that “[n]obody” on Fox advanced the assertion.
Cavuto: “I’ve researched this, and a number of Fox personalities had made that comment.” On the April 14 edition of Your World, Cavuto responded to Sen. Tom Coburn’s (R-OK) prior statement during a town hall meeting that contrary to a constituent’s claim, the idea that individuals could be put in jail for not having health insurance under the recently-passed health care legislation “makes for good TV news on Fox but that isn’t the intention.” Cavuto admitted to Coburn regarding the jail-time falsehood: “You’re quite right, I’ve researched this and a number of Fox personalities had made that comment.”
Indeed, Fox has relentlessly pushed the jail-time falsehood. As Cavuto noted, several Fox News personalities made the claim. These personalities include GlennBeck, Dick Morris, Sean Hannity, Andrew Napolitano, and Greta Van Susteren, as well as Fox News’ website Fox Nation and a Fox & Friends on-screen caption.

There was this experienced mountain climber who was nearing the top of a steep mountain. He slipped and fell about 10 feet to a small ledge. Nothing was broken, but his body was bruised.
All his equipment and food had fallen to the bottom of the mountain. He had no way up or down. As he considered his problem he looked to the other part of the mountain that he could jump to and climb down safely.
PROBLEM: He would have to jump over 7 feet to reach it. He wasn’t sure he could do it. If he did nothing he would starve or freeze to death in a few days; no hope.
If he could by faith jump that 7 feet and make it he would live. He could miss and be injured or may die.
IF IN DOUBT HE DOES NOTHING, HE DIES.
IF BY FAITH HE JUMPS AND MAKES IT HE LIVES.
IF HE MISSES HE STILL MAY LIVE BUT BE SEVERELY INJURED.
How many times have we taken a leap of faith, made it and are glad we did? Going to college, changing jobs, buying a car, house, getting married, etc?
When we do nothing things become worse because conditions change daily, opportunities appear and disappear.
ISN’T THE SAME TRUE ABOUT HEALTH CARE REFORM? IF WE DO NOTHING 8,000 people die weekly because they have no health care. Treatments (spiritual, mental and physical), rehab, proper medicine, etc. Everyday it becomes worse. The longer we wait the less we can do, until it is too late to do anything. We go into a deep depression and become a weak 3rd work country.
Will you take that leap of faith, or do nothing? It is too late to start over.
Look at how long they’ve been working on it. Every call counts. Even the Nuns are voting for it.

Erik Erikson’s 8 Stages of PsychosocialDevelopment
Stage 8: Maturity
Age: Late Adulthood — 65 years to death
Conflict: Integrity vs. Despair
Important Event: Reflection on
and acceptance of one’s life
|
Description:
The most important event at this stage is coming to accept one’s whole lifeand reflecting on that life in a positive manner. According to Erikson,achieving a sense of integrity means fully accepting oneself and coming to termswith the death. Accepting responsibility for your life and being able to undothe past and achieve satisfaction with self is essential. The inability to dothis results in a feeling of despair.
Elements for a positive outcome:
The adult feels a sense of fulfillment about life and accepts death as anunavoidable reality.
Elements for a negative outcome:
Individuals who are unable to obtain a feeling of fulfillment andcompleteness will despair and fear death.
Examples:
An aged person may find it necessary to reflect and analyze what they haveaccumulated throughout life and decide what offspring will receive from themupon death.

Rumors and hearsay are not accepted in Court. Which is closer to the truth:
“I feel like…”, “I think…” or
“I HAVE GONE TO THE ORIGINAL SOURCE AND KNOW IT IS TRUE?”
Self-deception: denying the relevance or importance of opposing evidence and logical argument.
