RNC's Health Scare Tactics
A recent fundraising mailer for the Republican National Committee was accompanied by a questionnaire which intimated that any health care reform may include a provision to deny Republicans medical treatment. What do you think?

Drain Layer
"That's absurd. The legislation would merely deny Republicans anesthesia during surgery."
Liz McEneaney,
Felt Pad Cutter
"I find it absolutely appalling that anyone could believe that political affiliation would be used to determine who receives medical treatment. That's what race and socioeconomic standing are for."
Grant Drucker,
Hearing Officer
"But if the Republicans don't like this health care policy, wouldn't they want to be excluded?"
