rush wasnt the only talk show host to report this.  i initially saw the
report on fox news.  i know its a tough pill to swallow for you, but he was
discredited and is an embarassment to the democratic party.  it was proven
that the young boy whining about how his family couldnt afford health
insurance has over half of a millions dollars in assets.

i dont listen to rush, although i would if i could spare the time during my
day.  i am not a republican, nor am i democrat (if i had to classify myself
it would be libertarian) though i am conservative.

here is your critical mistake sir.  if they are middle class (even lower
middle class) they are _choosing_ not to afford health insurance.  perhaps
they might have to give up cable tv, cigarettes, booze, and that new car but
that doesnt mean that they cannot afford health insurance.

thats real sad but lets be real here sir.  you arent _entitled_ to owning
your own home and if you lose it because you had to pay medical bills then
you lost it due to the choices you made along the way.  if they own their
own home, surely there were other sacrifices they _could_ have made along
the way that would have enabled them to pay for health insurance.  instead
they chose to roll the dice by spending their money on other things and they
ended up rolling snake eyes when they had the accident.  its sad, but you
arent entitled to owning a home, nor are you entitled to health
care.....this is not a socialist society.

perhaps instead of investing all their money they should have invested less
and paid for health care insurance?


> Why, you're just a downright prosperous fellow.

youre dang straight i am.  i have to be, because i do not expect my
government to care for me and mine.

wrong sir.  luck has _nothing_ to do with it.  it is by design.
