A Right, Or A Privilege?

By Miss Kubelik

On the eve (or thereabouts) of the Supreme Court's ruling on the Affordable Care Act, here are two candidates' takes on healthcare in America today.

Indiana teabagger and Republican Senate hopeful Richard Mourdock thinks that employers should have the right to exempt from their insurance plans not just coverage they personally object to, but any condition that jacks up costs — like cancer.

North Dakota Democrat Heidi Heitkamp, a breast cancer survivor, is running for Senate as a supporter of healthcare reform. "I would never vote to take away a senior's healthcare or limit anyone's care," she says.

So. Who would you rather have representing your interests in Washington? Yep, we thought so.
