Columnist Michelle Malkin wrote an important piece on what she calls "the mother of all death panels" — the Independent Payment Advisory Board:
[The Independent Payment Advisory Board] would have unprecedented authority over health care spending through a rogue board of 15 Medicare spending czars. The House repeal has a snowball's chance in hell of surviving the Senate. But IPAB's legality is being challenged in federal court by the conservative Arizona-based Goldwater Institute. And the more the public knows about these freedom-usurping, taxpayer-soaking institutions buried in the health care law the less they like it.
