SAVINGS FROM TORT REFORM? EVEN 1 IS THE PHONIEST NUMBER

Folks we have a new hero and he is Congressman Alan Grayson (D-FL). As you may have heard, in the health care debate in Congress he said the Republican plan is to get sick and die quickly. At least, that's what many people think he said. What he really said was to stay healthy and as a "fallback" if you get sick...then die quickly. He also pointed out that when the Bush people were fighting for tort reform, the sent their own committee to get the facts and prove what Mr. Bush wanted to prove, namely that the amount of the health care dollars wasted by trials for damages according to their figures (with all they could throw in) were 1% of the money spent. Others say it was less that .5%.

The Faux News Network Principles

A) We distort, you abide

B) Or we retort if you deride, unless we choose not to

C) Complete sentences are acceptable in lieu of complete truths

D) It’s OK to criticize the 2006 Democratic Congress for all America’s problems since 2001

E) We shoot from the flip

F) We’re not always accurate but we’re always certain

G) On what we feel is wrong in this world, we can’t stop people from saying I don’t agree or I don’t care, but we won’t let them say I didn’t know

H) The director’s board has a whim of irony

I) In times of emergency, we should rally around our President: In times of democracy he should do the same for us

J) We proudly plagiarize in advance, examples available upon request

K) It’s easy to be fun-based when you’re fact based

L) Good news parody makes for good news parity

M) And, of course, our goal is and always will be to be the most trusted name in Faux News
