Colbert clears up Bu$h’s new healthcare plan

January 25, 2007 By TXsharon

Colbert: What made [Tuesday’s State of the Union speech] so groundbreaking, I think, was all the new stuff we’ve never heard from the president before…like a domestic agenda. Take his proposal to fix the whole health care mess with the only proven cure-all: tax breaks…

Bush clip: And for the millions of Americans with no health insurance at all, this deduction would help put a basic private health insurance plan within reach.

Colbert: It’s so simple. Most people who couldn’t afford health insurance also are too poor to owe taxes. But…if you give them a deduction from their taxes they don’t owe, they can use the money they’re not getting back from what they haven’t given to buy the health care they can’t afford.

    We laughed our a$$es off last night when we heard him say that. Sadly, it’s all true.

    Loved it too.

    By the way Sharon, don’t believe anything I write on LL. I’m just playing with the boys there. I don’t play professional hockey though I do get out every Tuesday night for some hockey with the guys.
