I found this bit of news today kinda interesting:
Crowd gets raucous at Oberstar-Cravaack forum
U.S. Rep. Jim Oberstar and challenger Chip Cravaack didn’t just face each other at Tuesday’s Minnesota 8th Congressional District candidate forum at the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center Auditorium, they faced angry mobs of their opponent’s supporters.
But that wasn’t the “kinda interesting” part. This was:
Oberstar said the health-reform package “that I proudly voted for” will guarantee coverage despite pre-existing conditions, guarantee coverage won’t be cut off, end caps on benefits and, eventually, reduce the cost of health insurance while covering more people.
Guaranteed coverage of pre-existing conditions. Guaranteed uncapped benefits. Guaranteed unlimited coverage. More people enrolled.
And it’ll cost less.
Either he’s stupid enough to believe that, or he thinks we’re stupid enough to.
But economics precludes it.
And they wonder why the TEA Party exists.
