The government already had its nose in it. It wasn’t suddenly “sticking its nose in”.
It was going to make changes.
Perry said no more than, please don’t forget the rural folks, as if they don’t matter. He didn’t want small town clinics and hospitals to close, when already rural folks had the devil of a time getting health care.
But that wasn’t the charge I came on this thread to respond to, the charge was, Perry knew the details of Hillary’s plan and supported her plan.
A lie.
First line of the letter:
“I think your efforts in trying to reform the nation’s health care system are most commendable.”
This is taken from an image of the letter. Though he later goes on to talk about rural folk, the lynchpin of the letter is support for the effort. Perhaps this is not what he meant to say, like calling Conservatives “Heartless”, or conservative legislators “Murderers” because they oppose his view.
