Accountablility Commission

It seems more and more likely that some version of health care reform is going to pass and no matter what form it will take it is likely to have in it the things that right wing folks have referred to as "pulling the plug on grandma," death panels, giving hand outs to illegal immigrants, government funded abortions, and Nazi-esque/Socialist takeover by the Obama administration and government in general.

I believe that we should start some kind of grassroots-fueled commission that focuses on accountability around these claims, which will meet every six months after health care reform passes. Right wingers will be asked to review what of their claims about death panels and the like have come to fruition. If they cannot find prove that any of the things they predicted actually happened, then the commission will ask them if their attempts to destroy civic discourse was a politically calculated conscious decision on their part or if it was the unconscious behavior of a person who does not have the cognitive and/or emotional ability to be an accountable albeit undangerous voice to the American people.
