Faith-based health care?
How did I miss this? And it's apparently backed by Kerry and was backed by Ted Kennedy? WTF? I don't have anything against praying for health cures (free country and all that), but including payment for such "services" in HCR sounds really off the radar. :shrug:

4. Oh good grief..
Next thing that someone might suggest is that we base the entire health care system on faith healers,
and their ilk. Okay for those who believe in it, but not for me.....z
