Rep. Virginia Foxx: ‘There Are No Americans Who Don’t Have Health Care’
Earlier today, several female Republican House members held a press conference today to attack President Obama’s push for health insurance reform. “The Democrat way is not reforming healthcare, it’s destroying it,” announced Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN).
Perhaps the most attention-grabbing moment occurred when Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-NC) announced that “there are no Americans who don’t have healthcare“:
Rep. Virginia Foxx (R-N.C.) disputes President Obama’s claim that 47 million Americans lack healthcare. “There are no Americans who don’t have healthcare. Everybody in this country has access to healthcare,” she says. “We do have about 7.5 million Americans who want to purchase health insurance who can not afford it,” she says, urging Congress to adopt a new plan for healthcare reform that wouldn’t “destroy what is good about healthcare in this country” and “give the government control of our lives.”

The trick being there IS nothing good about healthcare in this country. Ha ha ha ha, she makes joke!
I had a very interesting debate with some of my coworkers awhile back, who insisted that we have the best healthcare system in the world. They based this on four critical pieces of evidence: a) neither of them had ever lived without insurance; b) neither of them had actually had to see a doctor for over a decade; c) we have doctors from a lot of foreign countries, which means pay scale is high, which in turn attracts "the best"; d) they've actually never been anywhere else.
I had, of course, to defer to their greater wisdom and experience, and go back to eating my cake....which I'm told is high in omega-3 fatty acids, anti-oxidants and prozac...
She don't get out much, does she.
