Must be nice

[Libby2]

to be kept in ICU for privacy reasons.

Lousy bastards.

1. I don't believe that reason at all.

He's there for a medical reason and not for privacy.

[Libby2]

2. I would rather believe that

than believe someone deserves ICU for privacy reasons.

Most of us don't get ICU when we need it.

3. If he doesn't need to be in the ICU,

he could be placed in a private room or a VIP suite, which they have at larger hospitals. This part of the story makes as much sense as the rest of it.

4. american tax payers had better NOT be paying for this. i WANT

to know. and i dont want to pay for the doctor that flew from washington to check out the victim too. i want cheney to be asked if this is coming out of his pocket or ours. another thing... now that we are talking about this. i dont want to pay for cheneys team of doctors and ambulance that follows him around 24/7. these are his personal issues nothing to do with his job, can come from his insurance provider seeing how it kicks regular americans insurance. or come out of his pockets

5. I'm with you, I was furious when I read that Cheney

has an ambulance on call 24/7. I can't afford health insurance for my family but this asshole has an ambulance waiting around for him to have a heart attack? You can bet your ass we are paying for it and for the doctors working on Dead-Eye's most recent victim. I bet any freeper who has been screaming about "welfare" is proud to know that they are paying for Dickies private medical team...

[catmother]

7. that is reprehensible. let him pay for his own damn medical

people. what a cushy jobs those guys have just following cheney around. how satisfying can that be?:shrug:

6. Yes and shouldn't there be a law that VPs

shouldn't be out hunting. After all it could have the Cheney who got pelleted, and that affects all of us.

8. the fuckers never heard of a "PRIVATE ROOM"- how dumb do they think

we are?

ICU is NOT private, as anyone who's been there knows... they are usually quite open with sightlines to many patients from a single vantage point.

[Libby2]

9. I'm guessing they think we are pretty dumb. nt
