Missouri's Governor Blunt Realizes Uninsured Poor Vote Too

Are our memories that short? I think not...

In 2005- Governor Blunt cut Medicaid coverage for more than 90000 Missouri residents- reduced benefits for another 17000 and caused around 25000 children to lose what insurance coverage they had.

Having- I assume- balanced whatever budget(s) he needed to balance on the backs of the poor these past 2 years- Blunt now wants to give that insurance back in this pre-re-election year to I assume at least SOME of those who lost said coverage in 2005.

Blunt's plan includes- among other pie-in-the-sky ideas- raising hospital taxes.

Brother (sister- father-mother)!

My Canadian fund awaits seeing who America's Sheep elect/re-elect next year....
