OBAMACARE IS LOOKING BETTER AND BETTER

FROM JUANITA JEAN'S THE WORLD'S MOST DANGEROUS BEAUTY SALON.

It Takes What It Takes

Let’s pretend there’s a guy named Clint Murphy who is a political operative.  Let’s pretend he worked on John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign and Karen Handel’s 2010 Georgia gubernatorial bid.

Then let’s pretend he got testicular cancer and discovered that his sleep apnea is classified as a pre-existing condition and he can’t get health insurance.

That would be a real quandary now, wouldn’t it?  If that were true.  And, of course, it is.

He survived the cancer but now can’t get insurance, so Obamacare is looking better and better.

And so Murphy’s Facebook post on Obamacare last week, addressed to his Republican friends, was something of a surprise: “When you say you’re against it, you’re saying that you don’t want people like me to have health insurance.”

There is nothing like a bout with testicular cancer to bring focus to your life, Murphy explained over the phone.

How come Republicans never, ever want government to do anything unless it is them or their immediately family who is suffering?

Republicanism is just a political justification for being greedy.  I am glad that Mr. Murphy got to keep his testicles.  He’s going to need them to stand up to the greedy people.
