| Wow. Compassionate conservative apparently means kicking children in the teeth. The New York Times has caught a rule change promulgated by the Bush Administration designed to knock some children off of State Children's Health Insurance Programs and prevent expansions of the programs in other states.
Under the proposal, states would only be able to expand CHIP if they can prove 95% participation rates, something our Senior Senator points out is an impossible request, out here in the real world. Senator Max Baucus, the Montana Democrat who is chairman of the Finance Committee, argued against the proposal, saying: "No state can meet 95 percent. No state currently meets 95 percent." On top of that, the feds want to impose wonderful things like waiting periods for children moving into CHIP. Why do they want families to deal with health care gaps? To prevent people from leaving the private sector health care options, which, as I'm sure people can testify, are numerous, wonderful, and affordable. By people, of course, I mean Bush's brother-in-harms Dennis the Menace Rehberg.
