The Health Insurance Racket

The 5 year compensation plan for the CEO of CIGNA could pay for *ALL* of the out of pocket expenses of everyone in Rhode Island.

The health insurance industry is a profit making engine. Its built to take your money, and not provide a service.

Watch, learn, act.

I love it when John Stewart destroys the mass media machine…

John Stewart kept calmer then he was when he destroyed Crossfire…

But none the less, Cramer just got destroyed.

Edit:
You just have to watch the whole damn thing.
All 3 segments across the whole episode.
The Dailyshow posted the ENTIRE interview, all excerpts included.

MUST-SEE TV: Top GOP pundits on accidental open-mic say Palin pick is ‘bullshit,’ race ‘is over’

Straight up copy from Americablog, to spread the word…

Here’s the transcript, courtesy of TPM:

CHUCK TODD: Mike Murphy, lots of free advice, we’ll see if Steve Schmidt and the boys were watching. We’ll find out on your blackberry. Tonight voters will get their chance to hear from Sarah Palin and she will get the chance to show voters she’s the right woman for the job Up next, one man who’s already convinced and he’ll us why Gov. Jon Huntsman.
(cut away)

PEGGY NOONAN: Yeah.

MIKE MURPHY: You know, because I come out of the blue swing state governor world: Engler, Whitman, Tommy Thompson, Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush. I mean, these guys — this is how you win a Texas race, just run it up. And it’s not gonna work. And –

PEGGY NOONAN: It’s over.

MIKE MURPHY: Still McCain can give a version of the Lieberman speech to do himself some good.

CHUCK TODD: I also think the Palin pick is insulting to Kay Bailey Hutchinson, too.

PEGGY NOONAN: Saw Kay this morning.

CHUCK TODD: Yeah, she’s never looked comfortable about this –

MIKE MURPHY: They’re all bummed out.

CHUCK TODD: Yeah, I mean is she really the most qualified woman they could have turned to?

PEGGY NOONAN: The most qualified? No! I think they went for this — excuse me– political bullshit about narratives –

CHUCK TODD: Yeah they went to a narrative.

MIKE MURPHY: I totally agree.

PEGGY NOONAN: Every time the Republicans do that, because that’s not where they live and it’s not what they’re good at, they blow it.

MIKE MURPHY: You know what’s really the worst thing about it? The greatness of McCain is no cynicism, and this is cynical.

CHUCK TODD: This is cynical, and as you called it, gimmicky.

MIKE MURPHY: Yeah.
