It was a treat having Brit Hume moderate FNS today. His interview of Republican John Boehner was informative and Boehner was serious, getting a lot across in a short time. He explained that the veto of SCHIP was because the program has drifted from helping poor children caught between Medicaid and affordability of private insurance. He specified Minn and Wisc as having more adults than children benefiting from SCHIP and Republicans want to make sure the money goes to where it was intended, poor children. Regarding Turkey, Boehner essentially said the current, or third, proposal by the RATS to condemn the nearly century old genocide of Armenians was bad for American troops etc. OTOH, democ rat Steny Hoyer shucked and jived his way thru all discussions the same as Hillary did in her interview with Chris Wallace. These RAT politicians talk, talk, talk, saying absolutely nothing of substance and outright lying by omission of pertinent facts. Hoyer had that same smart ass smirky, cat who caught the canary, look that Hillary's co-president Bill was known for. Hoyer has been involved for 25 yrs with the condemnation proposals and sees now as a very good time to bring one up yet again. Not at all concerned about the war repercussion because Turkey needs us more than we need them. So he says. On the SCHIP deal, well the RATS have their own magnificent plan which they are now working tirelessly to churn out in the near future. No doubt the one that raises the definition of children to age 25, and the poverty level to $80,000. And, lest anybody forgets, the Republicans do not care about children, especially poor ones. Lord, these RATS do disgust me.

What will the dems say when the SCHIP limit and the Alternative Minimum Tax limit cross each other? They will say: good, just send us all your money, and we will “take care of you.”

I don’t know. Hume was asking some very Democrat-like questions (practically gushing over SCHIP), I was not impressed. I had to do a double-take to make sure it was really him.
