Uh huh, but it still doesn't stop you from throwing out unsubstantiated bullshit.

"i hope this appt doesn't mean major cuts to medicare, harsher criteria, etc....."

What a load of unmitigated crap. Yeah, because this guy is just the type of guy to implement that:

"You could have protected the wealthy and the well, instead of recognizing that sick people tend to be poorer and that poor people tend to be sicker and that any health care funding plan that is just, equitable, civilized and humane must, MUST redistribute wealth from the richer among us to the poorer and the less fortunate. Excellent health care is, by definition, redistributional."
