[Political Junkie Too]

FReepers need to tread carefully, here. Don't want this to be construed as an attack on some kid (which it's not) rather than on the Dem power structure and the parents who were stupid enough to let the kid shill for the Dems and open their family up to public scrutiny (which it is).

One small correction: the Democrats weren't "stupid enough to let the kid shill for the Dems," the Democrats used the kid as a human shield for just this purpose. They knew that President Bush was going to veto the bill, and they purposefully hid behind the boy's "doctrine of infallibility" to attack anyone who dares attack the boy's message.

Small correction to your correction....I said that the parents were stupid enough to do it. At the time, the Dems likely thought it a good move....hope that it blows up on them.

I wouldn't let a pol get anywhere near my kid. Even if I agreed with them! lol!

Something I am not clear on with the whole story - according to Rush their medical woes all started when two of the children were said to have been injured in a serious auto accident

If that is accurate, then all the “medical polices” in the world would have not done them any good at all - private policy or company group policy coverage - i.e. if you read these policies they clearly state that they EXCLUDE payment for injuries as a result of auto accidents - regardless of who’ at falt

Under prevailing insurance laws - rules and industry regulations in America today auto related injuries must be covered under “auto insurance” - NOT general medical policies
