Dr. Gratzer (parsed for truthiness): "Oh, you're asking real questions and my ignorance is making me look like a jackass so I'm just going to accuse you of being a big mean bully!"

What a dishonest, small-minded, petty, little, bitch-ass doucherocket! Even tick scabs have more dignity than that.

What I am now interested in finding out is the combined number of insured and uninsured people who use the county hospital emergency rooms as their primary care clinics because they can't be turned away. Just fucking sick that they try to paint Canada as a horrible place to get medical care.

Go Kucinich - he is the only one that thinks that the insurance companies need to answer tough questions on why they, as non-profits are paying so much in dividends to their stockholders when they should be serving their direct customers, the ones who pay premiums but don't get the services they need. And they don't even show any sense of responsibility towards the uninsured, it's someone else's problem (like the property tax payers.)

Dennis is as straight as they come. Weird sometimes, like all Cleveland guys, but straight. It was delightful to see him stomp that supercilious punk from the Manhattan Institute.
