Unemployed Blogger Questions Bush

In his dreams, and mine. I just discovered the blog Love America, Hate Bush, and I really liked this post where he imagined being able to ask aWol questions in a press conference. Excerpt:
Mr. President -- one question and a possible follow-up. You were in New Hampshire on Wednesday promoting your Social Security plan, and you said that your idea is nothing new, that federal employees have long had the kind of investment options you're proposing. You said, and I'm quoting, "I'm the kind of guy who believes if it's good enough for federal employees, it oughtta be good enough for younger workers." My question, sir, is since every federal employee is covered by health insurance of some kind, what about the 45 million Americans who have no coverage at all? Why aren't you pushing for federal-type health insurance to be extended to them?
