Okay, so any of you who know me or have been avid readers of mine for any amount of time know that this opinion is nothing new, which must have you asking, "Yeah, so what's new?" Well, I just got annoyed by yet another article on Bush. This one is taken from The New York Times (although I'm sure it'll pop up everywhere) and concerns Bush's stance that there should be a cap on medical liability for doctors.

Rather than fighting for the "rights" of big insurance companies - even if they do fill his coffers with valuable campaign contributions - Bush should be out fighting for the little guy. The doctors and insurance companies have enough money. If anything, caps should be placed on how much poorer Americans should have to pay for health care. How many Americans fail to have important procedures done because they just can't afford it? How many senior citizens fail to get prescriptions filled because they can't afford the medications? Why should doctors and insurance companies be shielded from expensive lawsuits if they royally fuck up and someone dies or is seriously wounded as a result?

Dubya is allowed to take any stance he wants, and I really wouldn't care if it weren't for the fact that it seems so many people think he's the cat's meow. Because the guy goes to church he's obviously right? Because he's anti-abortion he should always be trusted? Because he thinks a missile defense system would stop terrorism we should kiss his ass? Because he's pro-capital punishment we should....

I hate people. People are stupid.
