Better we should stick with real facts that we can prove, instead of making assertions that we have to back-track on while the media pounces on the lack of credibility of “conservative websites”.

It is informative and fun for freepers to speculate. Lets say grandpa and grandma are filthy rich. Each can donate $11K per year per person for a total of $22K per family member without tax consequences. They can gift more, but have to pay tax unless they use part of their inheritance tax exclusion.

Since the parents really don't need the money, they can max out there retirement accounts and lower their taxable to $45K a year. The numbers don't add up in the story, so speculation occurs..

So at worst, the Frosts are tax-evaders who are not responsible enough to buy health insurance.

At best, they are irresponsible freeloaders dependent on their parents. (who are not responsible enough to buy health insurance)

Is this the best the democrats could trot out to promote SCHIP? What about the REAL poor people?
