Default OT - when politics gets personal


"Larry L" wrote in message
...
I just now heard that a friend in Idaho has been diagnosed with very
serious condition.

He and his wife have tried for years to find decent, affordable health
care insurance but to no avail, because of 'pre-existing" conditions.

They run a small business in the finest tradition of such things, work
incredibly long hours and don't make much doing so. They are
assets to their community in multiple ways, beyond their small store,
they are damn fine people. They, imho, are exactly the type of
people this country should be looking out for best, not screwing
around for political reasons.

May I say, from the bottom of my heart, on behalf of them and the
millions with similar stories,
**** Republicans in the US Senate


Why blame republicans? My wife had a preexisting condition, so I had to
start a small company. You can get Group Insurance for a group of 2. Group
insurance does not normally look at pre conditions. Did cost me $1200 a
month. Is that not reasonable?
