Hmmm ... jhw539 , i gather from your " bought and paid for by the insurance industry " lamentations that you 're a democrat ? so , was he in the pocket of the evil insurance companies when democrats wanted him second in line for leader of the free world 9 years ago , or did he only become evil after he swore off allegiance to the pure-as-the-driven snow democratic party ? get real ... he should at least be given credit for having the guts to call b.s. on the two party fiasco that masquerades as open politics these days .
