I Want Cheney's Medical Plan
In a comment, Lew got me thinking. I want Cheney's medical plan.
I looked in several places but couldn't find exactly what comprises Cheney's "medical people" that travels with him. From reading other accounts, it's clear that it is more than two, but I can't say if it's three or a dozen. BUT.....
I know I want that as my health plan. Where do I sign up to have a team doctors following me around with an ambulance waiting just for me? For the President, I might understand, but for the VP, a man whose sole duty according to the Constitution is to preside over the Senate and be available if something happens to the President?
"Mike's got a hangnail!!!! Swarm!!! Swarm!!!"
"Fortunately, the vice-president has got a lot of medical people around him and so they were right there ...," she said. "The vice-president has got an ambulance on call, so the ambulance came."

Isn't it obvious? It's the emergency team that has kept him alive through...what...four heart attacks and/or bypasses.

Really. The Republicans try to scuttle talk of a national health care plan don't have a problem with a VP who needs a medical team constantly onhand, at tax payer expense.
The good news is, his heart can only take so many before he gets the big one.
