Maxine on Health Care

got this in an email today ....



Let me get this straight.

...we're going to pass a health care plan written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it,

passed by a Congress that hasn't read it but exempts themselves from it,

to be signed by a president that also hasn't read it and who smokes,

with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes,


all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese,

and financed by a country that's nearly broke.


What could possibly go wrong

You forgot one thing. They are goping to pass a Health care bill that isnt even written.

How can they read it when it isnt even written.?

With that said, what exactly were they going to pass without reading back in August?

They are exempt. Although Steny has stated that 'we will all have the same options for health insurance', except we wont be able to get on the congressional plan.
