Well, he reports the same silliness: 47 million Americans don't have health
insurance. Lack of heath INSURANCE is not the same as lack of health CARE.

Of these, 10-12 million are illegal aliens, 2-5 million are seniors who have
not yet signed up for Medicare, about 20 million are young people who have
chosen NOT to spend their money on insurance, 2-4 million are between jobs
that include insurance. So, then, 34 to 41 of the 49 million are not part of
the chronically uninsured.

As to ca Of the 8-13 million not covered, they can still get health care
at emergency rooms, pubic clinics, VA, and other sources.

Obama and many others would chance screwing up a health insurance system
that WORKS for 300 million people just so a very small number can get more
attention.
