Quote of the Day II
Here's how McCain described his health care proposal earlier this year:
Opening up the health insurance market to more vigorous nationwide competition, as we have done over the last decade in banking, would provide more choices of innovative products less burdened by the worst excesses of state-based regulation.
That's right, that was McCain referring to how he helped open up "vigorous nationwide competition" in the banking industry by tearing down the walls of excess government regulation.
McCain thinks, "Wow, insufficient government regulation in the financial industry worked GREAT! Let's try it on the health care sector too!!"
This deluded man is profoundly dangerous.
Update: Here's Obama's response:
My opponent actually wrote in the current issue of a health care magazine -- the current issue -- quote -- 'Opening up the health insurance market to more vigorous nationwide competition, as we have done over the last decade in banking, would provide more choices of innovative products less burdened by the worst excesses of state-based regulation.' So let me get this straight -- he wants to run health care like they've been running Wall Street. Well, senator, I know some folks on Main Street who aren't going to think that's a good idea.
