I even heard Randy say there health care provides them FREE plastic surgery if they choose to have it. And we are paying for this shit.

1. Congress is covered by the same health care plan all Federal employees are
Edited on Wed Jul-22-09 09:14 AM by katandmoon
They choose among a number of private plans, they pay premiums like anyone else, they have co-pays like anyone else, and they are limited to the coverage their particular plan provides. If their particular plan allows plastic surgery then it's covered, but it would also be covered for a grade 2 clerk-typist (if there is such a thing in the government any more) who chose the same plan. And it would not a special deal just for Repukes to get "free" plastic surgery. Please ask Randy to cite exactly WHICH insurer offers FREE plastic surgery, so this retired Fed can switch.

2. Someone asked this of Chuck Grassley
Someone asked Chuck Grassley this very question at a town hall meeting, and the lovely Mr. Grassley told this person to get a job with the federal government. Asshole.
