Esquire Magazine Commission of Former U.S. Senators Calls for the Creation of Health Courts

Esquire Magazine's Commission to Balance the Federal Budget calls for the creation of health or medical courts, to help rein in the spiraling cost of health care.

The Commission was appointed by the magazine to create an actionable plan to erase the federal deficit by 2020.

Chaired by Lawrence O'Donnell (MSNBC).
4 former U.S. senators: Democrats, Bill Bradley and Gary Hart, and Republicans, John Danforth and Bob Packwood.

Just what we need.  A former basketball player/U.S. Senator, a former womanizing U.S. Senator, and two former RINO U.S. Senators presiding over health care reform recommendations and health courts.   :o

Send the Risky Business back to sea, and sink this sorry charade. By the time this gang of third-raters gets done, we'll be handed even more rate-hikes, to cover incidentals like this commission's fact-finding tour in the Bahamas...hot and cold running cabin girls as their secretarial staff.

Hell, no, they don't want death panels. Not much they don't.

SPARTANS...render the infant for examination, determine if he or she deserves to live as a Spartan or shall be left on the hill side for vultures and wolves!!!!!

I say, like hell and I personally will never to submit to such a court nor will any member of my family, as long as I am able to hold gun, knife, sword or stick.

For one thing, does this rag expect ANY American to take this commission seriously? By what stretch of imagination does a former skin-magazine (now a geriatric homage to overpraised dead white writers) get the authority to do ANYTHING?

What would you expect from a "B-list" magazine?  They pay a bunch of "B-list" former Senators to sit around and pretend to be intelligent.

The only former politicians missing from this group of idiots and liars are Gary Condit, Jim McGreevey, and Elliot Spitzer.

I think it was someone at the LA Times who mentioned it in passing (and not in a derogatory way, since Condit was the focus, not his frau) that investigators never really bothered to check the alibi of Condit's wife, the day Chandra Levi went missing. Since when is the "woman scorned" NOT a suspect in a murder case, unless the liberal press covers for a liberal womanizer, like they did for Clinton, Condit, "Silky" Edwards, and later for Obama over his fling with Vera Webb.

Heidi Fleiss belongs on this commission. And Barney Frank, who ran a different brothel out of his own apartment and blamed it on his "room mate."

They can all sit on a yacht telling each other they're doing something IMPORTANT. Right. Uh huh.

Somebody was arrested last year in the Levy murder, and I believe the trial is going on right now, or the guy just pled guilty.  Some transient or something.

I forgot about Silky Pony Edwards.  He definitely belongs on the commission.

Aside from the convenience of finding a drifter instead of indicting a Democrat, it still bugs me nobody seriously tracked Condit's wife's whereabouts. Phone records, for example, COULD have placed Frau Condit in the same neighborhood as where the body was found. I can't find one source that indicates any records-search was even attempted. They just let her alone.

A hobo without much chance of gaining credibility was, however, not so lucky.

Ah, well. On the other hand, it seriously bugs the left that the National Enquirer did track "Love Machine" Edwards as he sprinted (well-coiffed) through hotel halls. I'll settle for that, compared to the nothing the MSM was saying about Edwards (and later the sex tape).

The Democratic judge issuing the silence order on that tape is mentioned here.... http://www.nationalenquirer.com/john_edwards_sex_tape_gag_order_issued_grand_jury/celebrity/69547

(No, I'm not their fan, but in fact they DID own this story from the beginning, from good old-fashion stakeout journalism.)

Chandra Levi? A nobody. Just ask the Donks. Forget her like that "Republican plant" Mary Jo Kopechne, the OTHER secretary whose inconvenient death threatened to sully the unparalleled career of that saint-in-waiting, Lifeguard Ted (D-Seagrams). Chandra was inconvenient. Embarrassing. Of course you blame it on the hobo. The Donks couldn't find a believable Republican, or they'd've blamed him.

 :)) :)) :))

(D-Seagrams)!  Ain't that the truth!
 
Chappy Kennedy is sadly missed in Massachusetts, especially by the liquor distributors.

Ah, Teddy. I can't claim credit for the line. I think it came from http://PatriotPost.us (a free 3-a-week, beautifully-assembled boost to conservative morale).

The day that national disgrace died, I did these.

GREAT tributes to "the pickled one".   :)) :)) :))
