Save Money On Your Health Care Costs!

If I find myself in need of a creative solution to a problem, I know that I can consult my Friends In The Ether for some advice and that I will receive at least several good and creative suggestions. There’s just something about being conservative or libertarian that brings out the innovative in people.
Therefore, I was not surprised when my good FITE Ran, proprietor of Si Vis Pacem, came up with a way that I could have saved myself and my health insurance company a few bucks during the past few days of my medical problems…
He suggested that I should have gone to the nearest airport and had the TSA perform my x-rays and physical examinations for free.
Brilliant!
‘Gee willakers…Belvedere doesn’t think I’d make a good President, huh?’
The Camp Of The Saints 
ROFLMAO!!!
So, bob, I take it you’re no fan of Romney nor of Romneycare? Another area we are in perfect agreement! Great minds and all that!
Count me in, too, Proof. GHW Bush is a fan of Romney. Need we say more?
If bob will permit a little shameless link whoring, I did a piece on Mr. Romney and his health care fiasco in Massachusetts here:

I believe the words I used about him running for president again were:
No.
Hell, no.
(Insert more emphatic “NO” here )
Great minds, indeed.
Proof/Ran: ‘Whore-Away!’ is one of our mottos here at TCOTS.
Heh! Romney is a marvelous gent, a true class act. But he’s a RINO. Just as importantly, I don’t get “killer instinct” from him at all. I don’t see that our enemies will fear the guy. They must feel fear.
Now Palin… reminds me of Thatcher. (Boadicea would be proud.)
All you need to know about the weakness of the field of Republican candidates in ’08 is that Romney, a RINO champion of socialized medicine from the bluest of blue states, was considered “the conservative” among the field of candidates with a legitimate shot at winning the nomination. (Yes, Huckster was also considered “conservative”, but I don’t remember any pundits who ever gave him any real chance of getting the nomination)
I don’t think we are going to have that same problem in ’12. Romney needs to do himself and his supporters a favor by not running and not wasting his supporters money, he will get steamrolled by any legitimate conservative who runs.
Erich: I hope that Huckabee is reading from the same page in the hymnal. He is also an extremely weak candidate, though not quite as bad as Romney.
Erich/Proof/Ran: Living up here in the Nor-East, I had a pretty good seat to watch Mitt in action. Forgetting the whole Socialized Medicine thing he smilingly signed for a moment: he was, frankly, a wimp. The House and Senate ran roughshod overhim. Everytime he proposed a budget, they would literally put it aside with a snicker and do what they wanted to do. To be fair, The Constitution of Massachusetts does not allow for a strong Governor [visions of Royal Governors danced in the writers’s heads when they wrote it], but many of their Chief Executives have been able to get a lot done by using the bully pulpit and exhibiting some cunning – Mitt was awful at both.
As for Hucksterbee, well, my nickname says it all.
