A writer of the TV series NURSE. That makes her an expert.

....close enough for government work, eh?
Are they going to promote this televised failure like Anchorman 2, or (what I feel is an impending flop) That Awkward Moment?
What happens when a company tries to cram a totally inferior product down the public’s throat?

This one’s been around a long time, but it always makes me smile. “One Single Payer System” to the tune of “One Singular Sensation”
The story line will be thus (with some alternations from show to show): Obama care will be flawed... someone in desperation will appeal and cry for help... private insurance will fail... government workers will succeed and that someone in desperation will be saved. Glory to Mamma Gub’mint!!
Obamacare is the ultimate knockout punch to the nation Obama despises.
It’s unaffordable, there’s no care, and it’s all an act. Oh, well, I guess 1 out of 3 isn’t bad.
