Frightened Howard Dean: I see trial lawyers

Why is tort reform not included in health care reform? Because lawyers scare politicians.
In actuality, lawyers are politicians. Tort reform would mean they really were attempting to reform the problems (though not many, they do exist) in the American health care system. The absence of any such language proves they are only out for one thing: government control.



This is a much better video that recaps a post from yesterday concerning the man from Rep. Jim Moran's town hall who was refused a question until submitting an ID, mistakenly accused of not being himself, and then eventually allowed to ask the tort reform question neither Moran nor Howard Dean could give any plausible answer toward, except fear.

“This is the answer from a doctor and a politician. Here is why tort reform is not in the bill. When you go to pass a really enormous bill like that the more stuff you put in, the more enemies you make, right? And the reason why tort reform is not in the bill is because the people who wrote it did not want to take on the trial lawyers in addition to everybody else they were taking on, and that is the plain and simple truth. Now, that’s the truth."
Howard Dean,
former Democratic National Committee Chairman.

Pathetic. Buy yeah, honest.

Tort reform would save between $60-$200 BILLION a year. So why no reform?

"Because the trial lawyers own the Democrat Party."
Charles Krauthammer.

That is now quite obvious. Thanks for the honesty Dean!
