Nancy Pelosi recently said “Insurance companies are out there in full force, carpet bombing, shock and awe against a public option.” She might have added, “And throwing me a $2,500 a plate fundraiser.”
Steve Elmendorf, a registered lobbyist for UnitedHealth, is hosting the fundraiser at his palatial home.
Odd, isn’t it, that everyday Americans opposed to the health care program are called insurance company lackeys, Nazis, un-American and assholes. (Oh, wait. That last one came from the communist who got fired, so it shouldn’t be counted against Nancy).
So let’s make one thing clear: when you have a $2,500 a plate fundraiser thrown for you by the same people that you vilify on a daily basis, you are not an asshole.
But you are a freakin’ hypocrite.
