Roy Blunt - Out of Step With Missouri

For years, Roy Blunt has been a Congressman from a different part of Missouri and I could pretty much ignore his philandering and prize-winning corruption. But now he's trying to become my embarrassment, too, as a candidate for Senate, so I'm starting to pay attention to whether he can fill the shoes of Senator Kit "Earmark" Bond.

Yesterday, Roy Blunt announced that he is opposing "pre-existing condition" coverage in Health Care Reform. He wants insurance companies to be able to deny coverage for those with high blood pressure, minor skin cancer, diabetes, even genetic conditions. It really is a shocking position to take - 89% of Americans support the provisions requiring coverage of pre-existing conditions.

I think you're a little to narrow, Dan--Blunt is out of step with humanity. Except for his insurance industry bagmen, of course.

No, I think Blunt is a Tobacco Industry Bag Man. He is an Insurance Industry Whore.

I still wonder why his "boy" shamed the family and did not seek re-election. I am thinking it was something sexual in a way that his family would attack any other politician who engaged in "it."


Oh wait, 8:31 AM referred to HIS insurance industry bag men and did not call Roy one. Oh well, the comment stands because the first paragraph is too good.
