15. Point #9 in their purity test
(9) We support protecting the lives of vulnerable persons by opposing health care rationing and denial of health care and government funding of abortion; and

So they oppose the denial of healthcare? How does that jibe with continuing to support the market based private insurance system that has contracts under the terms of which they can deny healthcare? Is this just a vague and nebulous throw away statement to make it appear that they support healthcare for all Americans? Have the Republicans even come close to proposing a healthcare system that protects "the lives of vulnerable persons" and prohibits the "denial of health care" for those who can't afford an insurance policy?
