Last week Florida Congressman Alan Grayson accurately and succinctly explained the Republican Health Care “Plan”:
“Don’t get sick. And if you do get sick, just please die quickly.”
His passionately honest retort against our nation’s “no-mongers” has spread across the country faster than a California wildfire.
Brave New Films has just created this short video which clearly exposes the utter hypocrisy and obdurate cruelty of Republican health care “efforts”. I commend Congressman Grayson for his honesty and bravery. It is so incredibly rare and refreshing to hear one of our nation’s elected officials actually speak the truth and call out divisive Republicans on their bald-faced lies and obstruction.
Ironically, as I am writing this I am at present a patient at UCSF Medical Center, one of the best hospitals in the country. Three days ago I just had a big scary surgery, and have been receiving amazingly great health care, for which I am immensely grateful. Thanks to the visionary Tom Ammiano, San Francisco, unlike nearly every other place in the United States, provides universal health care coverage for all of its residents. It is now time that the rest of the nation does the same. Health care is a human right, not a privilege.
About Rhonda Winter
Since when did health care become a right? Where in the constitution is health care mentioned? I don’t remember it being the responsibility of the government (meaning the people) to provide anything other than absolutely basic services for the population and for the defense of our nation. Unless of course you have found a new portion of the constitution which I would love to be able to read as well.
GREAT POST!!!
