Now all you liberal democrat Obama health care worshipers, listen up.

A premier of one of our provinces, Dan Williams, is going to the US for
heart surgery. A premier is just like a state govenor. Even runs the
provinces health care.

Now ask yourself why he is going to the USA when he could have done it at
home? He is in the know with the pull, yet goes to the US.

Rationalise it into your skulls, Obama health care is about government
getting revenue.

It's possible he may have needed specialized treatment only available in a
few places on earth. At this point we don't know just why he didn't get
treatment at home...or Halifax, Montreal, Toronto ect.

Doubtful, probably a bypass type operation. Now if you are saying the
Newfoundland/Canaian system does not have enough surgeons, or of US
quality... I hear you.

My wife was initially sceduled for a cyst operation, almost 7 months up
and they were uncertain if it was cancer. Fortunately someone couldn't
make theirs and she got in early in 5 weeks and it wasn't cancer.
Lucky, I feel sorry for those that wait 7 months and find out it has spead.

So why not Halifax, Montreal, Toronto etc? Halifax is on the way to the
US. Over booked? Have to wait 2 years? Maybe get lucky and someone
ahead of you dies first opening up their rationed slot?

Americans better get used to it, it is how government controls costs.
Skimin gthe rest for other stuff.
