George Bush Doesn't Care About Sick Kids
'Compassionate' Bush fails children on healthPoor excuse one:
"The legislation dramatically expands federal spending far beyond what is
necessary to reauthorize S-CHIP responsibly."
Poor excuse two: The proposed expansion "essentially extends a welfare benefit to middle class households."
Poor excuse three: The proposed expansion "would cause millions of individuals to drop their private insurance in order to be involved with a government insurance plan."
Poor excuse four: "It transforms the program into an effectively unlimited entitlement program."
