I disagree with the assessment, but it’s too amusing to not share. Via DailyKos, one can find Colbert’s interpretation of the Bush health care proposal presented in Tuesday night’s State of the Union:
It’s so simple. Most people who couldn’t afford health insurance also are too poor to owe taxes. But…if you give them a deduction from their taxes they don’t owe, they can use the money they’re not getting back from what they haven’t given to buy the health care they can’t afford.
