A Donut That Doesn't Sit Right
I'm not talking about a jelly donut. I'm talking about the donut in the Medicare debacle that Congress passed recently.

This Medicare bill was a pure and simple boondoggle for the drug companies. Fortunately, we have SeniorCare that Governor Doyle got extended, but more needs to be done.
From the Democratic Difference:
We seek an affordable single-payer health care system that provides universal access, promotes preventive health care, and covers prescription drugs, and all physical and mental illnesses.
We support Badger Care, Wisconsin Senior Care, Medicaid and Medicare with prescribed drug and medical device benefits and oppose undercutting Medicare by HMOs and insurance companies.
We favor enhancing programs for the aging and disabled, including subsidized long term in-home or nursing home care.
That's a boondoggle I could stomach!
