A successful procedure

If US health care reform is passed, as it looks like it probably will be, its first surgical procedure will be the excision of a persistently putrescent hemorrhoid that’s been lodged immovably in the sphincter of America:

Hate radio host Rush Limbaugh has been one of health care reform’s most vociferous opponents, warning that “[h]uman beings will die earlier than normal” under the “freedom killing” and “life threatening” plan, and calling for it to be “aborted.” Yesterday, Limbaugh put his money where his mouth is, saying that if health care passes and all his fears are realized, he’ll leave the country…

Oh really?  And where might you be headed, El-Rushbum?

I’ll just tell you this, if this passes and it’s five years from now and all that stuff gets implemented — I am leaving the country. I’ll go to Costa Rica.

Whoops!  Time to buy Pfizer, I predict a raging bull market in Viagra.
