1. Pruneface Needs To Spend A Night In An Ambutol...
or any other ER where the uninsured get their "quality" medical care. He should spend a night at County (not Stroger) Hospital in Chicago and see all the very sick people who wait for the few doctors who can treat them, but not much else.

Yep, Mitchie, doctors are required to care for the sick...it's called the Hypocratic Oath...but the Hospitals don't. This is called the Hypocrisy Oath. Once these people are treated...many stop-gap...they're shown the door only to return in worse condition...and whose paying for that Mitchie? Surely not the rushpublicans whose tax breaks to the rich under boooshie all but killed public funding on the local level for health care. It sure isn't the inurance companies who throw millions at his tobacco stained fingers...who will find reasons NOT to insure.

47 Million people need to see this bullshit and get them pissed off. For a decent healthcare package to become a reality, we're going to have to push back against the lobbyists and get in our Congresscritters faces...early, often and repeat.

Cheers...
