Conservatives treat their constituents like suckers (4): Say what you will about cancer...

Rick Perlstein's picture

Conservatives lie. They can't win without lying.

In this episode, a right-wing advocate for "free market" solutions to the health insurance crisis overwhelming the nation's families goes on the radio to claim that the state of Massachusett's wacky idea of - get this - helping people get health insurance has really gone off the deep end: the state insurance plans mandate that hair restoration be covered!!!!!!

Listen here to what happens a brave and sane American points out that what is actually mandated is hair replacement regimes for kids and women that survive cancer.The conservative displays a contempt for humanity that is breathtaking: she argues the treatment shouldn't be covered because the need for it is rare.
