NBC News: Tim Russert is STILL dead!!
Apparently NBC News is going to whore out poor dead Timmeh to "raise awareness" of heart disease or something like that. And I'm sure that FAUX will follow suit soon, exploiting Tony Snow's corpse for cancer screenings, and try to do their good deed for the decade.


Well here's a suggestion, media whores.

In the names of Tim and Tony, and all of those who have died way before their time from circumstances that were either preventable, or possibly curable if caught early enough, why don't you bastards push for UNIVERSAL FUCKING HEALTH CARE?

Not that Tim or Tony ever had a problem paying medical bills. But many people do. And that's even more inexcusable in this country than someone dying in their 50's is.

I wonder how many 50 somethings at the BBC have died this year? CBC? Whatever the Hell network they have in France?

2. But we in America prefer to pretend to be a first world nation
Rather than actually being one.

I have no idea why, btw.

3. Tim and Tony didn't need universal helathcare
and BOTH OF THEM not only could have cared less about other people who may have needed it- but they ACTIVELY fought against during their careers.
