Stossel: There will be death panels if we do nothing

"20/20" co-anchor John Stossel appears to be the only one of ABC News' talking heads who isn't totally immersed in the tank for Obama. Speaking at a Madison, Wisconsin town hall event sponsored by conservative group Americans for Prosperity, the self-proclaimed libertarian underscored the urgency of Sarah Palin's recent warning about ObamaCare when he told the crowd:
"There will be death panels if we do nothing."
Stossel, the event's keynote speaker, said Obama's health care proposals would "make things much worse" by driving up costs and resulting in fewer choices available to consumers.

The audience of more than 1,700 also heard from a panel of speakers, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
"...including an insurance company executive, the president of a manufacturing company and the founder of a medical center. For 40 minutes they took audience questions, including a few from people in favor of changes to the current health system."
