Republican Congressman Pete Olson (R-TX) tells the town hall about a mother who was turned away by the free market doctors for her unborn child's heart defect. She was denied by the free market doctors but persisted and was able to find a specialized doctor and got a very delicate operation and a heart transplant 17 days after he was born. Olson then claims that the public option would have denied him the needed health care and he would have died! Now this kid will have a preexisting condition which the public option would HELP!!!!
