health care for all*

* – “all” typically means everything, everyone, no one left out, 100%.

Except, when you’re a Democrat, the term “all” means almost everything or everyone.  The political equivalent of horseshoes and hand grenades.  To quote Rep. John Dingell (D-MI) from his speech last night in the health care “debate”

“It provides coverage for 96 percent of Americans. It offers everyone, regardless of health or income, the peace of mind that comes from knowing they will have access to affordable health care when they need it.”

PelosiCare will cover 96% of Americans…but offers everyone care.  I’m sorry, wait, which is it?  Everyone…or almost everyone?  96%?  What about the other 4%? In case you’re curious, 4% of the American population (roughly 305 million) is a little more than 12 million people.  Let me repeat that to make sure the number sticks in your head…

Per the Democrats, 12 million Americans will STILL be WITHOUT coverage despite a huge explosion of government bureaucracy and over $1.2 trillion (or more) in spending.
