A lot of attention was given to Rush’s "I hope he fails" statement on Hannity, but perhaps the most telling statement came just a few minutes later:
Rush:
"If he gets nationalized health care, I mean, it's over, Sean. We're never going to roll that back."
Wait a second....... For the last 15 years the Rethuglican noise machine has been screaming about the dangers of "socialized medicine" and what a disaster it would be.
• Waiting lines to see a doctor.
• Government interference.
• Inefficient Bureaucracy
• Lack of innovation
Yet, we would never get rid of it?
Surely such results would be rolled back in the next election cycle.

The fact is, Rush knows all the "Christianized" systems (French, Canadian, English) he criticizes get far better reviews by the citizenry they service than our "screw the poor" insurance system.
So the question for Rush is;
Which is it, will universal healtcare be a disaster, or will we never "roll it back"?
Maybe if we add a "free OxyConton for radio loud mouths" clause he’ll change his tune.
