18,000 deaths a year among adults because of lack of insurance.

Funny how the NYT doesn’t seem to care about 1,000,000 deaths a year among different demo who also happen to lack insurance, but that’s not the cause of their deaths.

How many adults die every year because of drunk driving, something that wasn’t hurt any by Obama’s beer summit promoting alcohol as a solution to problems. If a GOP President had a beer summit he’d be raked over the coals.

What’s next, is Obama going to invite follks down to DC to smoke Ganja and pass the peace pipe while they groove on Bob Marley?

It seems to me the GOP needs to emphasize reducing the costs for those who already have insurance. Way more people have insurance and are upset at the cost than don’t have it, especially among voters. If the GOP focuses on lowering costs for those who do have insurance and Obama and the dems focus on giving everyone insurance, the GOP will win tha tdebate 100% of the time.

Why would they care? They sure as hell didn’t care when Stalin was murdering millions and they won Pulitzers for making up stories about how great he was. What’s 18,000 when you have lied about the deaths of Millions?

That was an estimated 18,000 deaths. How many deaths are physician caused (itarogenic)? If the info at the link is correct it’s almost 800,000 a year. Maybe health care isn’t a panacea.
