McConnell: a friend in Florida had a friend in Canada
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell explains his opposition to health care reform: “I have a friend in Florida who had a friend in Canada that died”.

McConnell, I have a friend of a friend of another friend of a friend who says that you are the dumbest politician he has ever known. Listening to you, I am starting to believe that friend of a friend of a…..friend. I cannot believe that you base your political decisions (that affect people of this country) on silly anecdotes! No wonder the republican party is in the “choux”.

McConnell knows he is exaggerating, even lying. I have friends who are a couple in their 70s that live in Canada and love their health care; the husband got a heap replacement at his later 70s.
Actually a public option would have to be protected from lemon dropping and cherry picking by private insurance which is what health insurance companies know best. This is how they reduce risk and squeeze the most out of Americans’ suffering.
