Brickbat: KIA

Jerry Miller wants you to know he is still alive. The Palm Bay, Florida, resident and Army veteran says he has been declared dead four times by the U.S. Veterans Affairs Department since July 2010. Each time, the agency cuts off his benefits, and each time Miller calls them and convinces them he's alive.

For those without a scorecard, "access denied" is the model that the Right gives us for perfect national healthcare.

There's no shoe insurance plan. Do people lack access to shoes?

I once complained about having no shoes until I met a man with a Lamborghini Ferruccio.

If you're uninsured and on the brink of death, that's apparently a laughing matter to some audience members at last night's tea party Republican presidential debate.

Maybe they're laughing because it's some sort of sick joke that leftists would rather lament the greed of wealthy people not wanting to pay for the care of others instead of those same leftists fork over their own money and effort to actually care for the poor?

Figures the VA would use red tape as their death panels.

If they were just a little more committed him being dead, they'd soon be proven right.

Whilst I get calls regarding my "service" all the time. VA mortgage refi offers being the latest, and near nightly, one.

I looked into that once. It's an even bigger pain in the ass than a regulr mortgage, for no real added benefit that I could see.

Under Obama's second term, his dreams for our society will be realized.
