grantcart's Journal - McCain: Time for Republicans to get started on health care reform (CHOKE, SNORT, and NOSTRIL SPURT)

Astonishingly Senator McCain is now calling on Republicans to come up with a health care reform agenda, implying that they don't have one.

Apparently the full blown media debate, tea bagging demostrators, multi million dollar industry ad campaigns, Presidential addresses, town halls and press conferences did not alert the Republicans and its last presidential nominee that the issue has been of some interest to just about everyone for the last 6 months.

Now that is effective napping!

And it has to do with things that are not associated with government-controlled health care in America.
