Blitzer showed the way into the Dungeon of Teaklanner "sick care" disregard last night
Yeah, Wolf! Go, baby! Here's another question for next time:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/social/raker/tea-party-debate-health-care_n_959354_107613098.html">GOP Tea Party Debate: Audience Cheers, Says Society Should Let Uninsured Patient Die

(click the Headline on HuffPo for the Ron Paul video)


“A better question from Blitzer (what are the chances of that) would have posed this scenario: A thirty year old man who works for Wal-Mart for $8 an hour. He has the best health insurance he can afford, which costs very little and covers virtually nothing, and only after a huge deductible­, with a $15,000 benefit maximum. He's diagnosed with a brain tumor. He can no longer work and only a tiny percentage of his health care bills are covered. Let him die?

We must always press these greedy, venal Republican politician­s to admit that they would rather see people die than have the government help them survive.

And to all those smug, clueless people who cheer when Rick Perry says he wants to destroy Social Security—t­hat's the same thing: "Let them die."`”
