A constituent asked Cantor about her friend who:

• worked for years and owns a home and is inelligible for government assistance
• had employer based health care that disappeared with her termination
• shortly thereafter was diagnosed with tumors in her stomach that need to be treated immediately.

Cantor’s Health Care Solution: Oh my, did you lose your employer funded insurance? There’s probably a government program out there you don’t know about that can help you, if not some charity may hook you up.

The minority whip dodged the question, pure and simple. It betrays the real stance of most GOP legislators at this time. They have not engaged in any real policy thought regarding health care. Health care is a personal, business and quality of life issue. It affects every segment of our society and if a legislator has nothing besides “tort reform” to offer as a health care solution then they are not serious about their duties.

He did go off on her. Deservedly so.

Craig Miller is one of the Health Care Town Hall constituents who was just driven so CRAZY by the socialism that he had to be one of the folks who confronted Arlen Specter in Lebanon, PA. He actually wanted to deliver a list of ways he believes President Obama has broken his oath. Like appointing a car czar, or ah…some other things like having Jay-Z on his iPod. He is anti-Democrat. On morning meeting he listed the politicians he doesn’t trust. A sampling: Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barney Frank and oh yea…anyone else with a D by their name on a ballot.

But, I am writing about this constituent twice, unfortunately, because this hero, a stalwart and principled anti-socialist, anti-marxist, black radical exposer apparently collects disability checks from the same government he doesn’t trust to reform health care or to run any government agency, except the Social Security Administration. They are OK. Guess he is only hopping mad until that check from the Social Security Administration pops up in his mailbox. Here he is being interviewed by Dylan Ratigan on MSNBC’s Morning Meeting:

He can’t be that crazy because he understands one simple logical rule: when you get a check in the mail, you cash it. Or maybe, that’s just the Marxist magic that the Democrats use to confuse us: the socialist policy that pays out..it just feels so so damn free market.
