There is not a child in America who is refused health "care."

There, that is another one where our side always lets them frame the issue. This response should be given every single time that this lie is told.

I agree in principle.

I see more conservatives (M Medved and H Hewitt come to mind) who challenge this absurd assertion when they encounter it.


The typical exchange goes like this;

Moonbat: "40% (or whatever silly crap) of Americans don't have healthcare".

Conservative: "That's simply not true. It is arguable that there may be many Americans who don't have healthcare insurance".

Moonbat: "You're twisting what I meant. Republicans allow the poor to suffer because they don't have insurance."

Conservative: "There is not a child in America who is refused health care."

Moonbat: "Now you're changing the subject. What we need is affordable healthcare*".

** codespeak for "paid for by rich Republicans"

We have won one tiny pr point.

Every Republican pol that I hear now, when discussing taxes, says "Americans keeping more of their money" instead of "government giving money back to [rich] Americans."

I was on a letter- writing and phone-calling campaign for that change in locution for a few years.

I am working on the health care is not health insurance statement now.
