Are you sure you want government-run healthcare?

WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House scolded the Federal Emergency Management Agency on Friday for staging a phony news conference about assistance to victims of wildfires in southern California.

[...]

White House press secretary Dana Perino said it was not appropriate that the questions were posed by agency staffers instead of reporters. FEMA was responsible for the "error in judgment," she said, adding that the White House did not know about it beforehand and did not condone it.

They can't get FEMA right, more than a year after Katrina showed just how poorly the agency performs. Are you sure you want this government running your healthcare, too?

  1. I am not sure I would like a FEMA like agency running my healthcare, but I would like to know that almost all of the people in this country have access to good healthcare, they can afford.

  2. I wouldn't like this government to run ANYTHING? But, y'know, the guy who was responsible is up for a position at the Director of National Intelligence. The revolving door goes around again.
