Rep. Weiner Calls On Republicans to Defund Their Health Care Plans
Although a few GOP tea-baggers have opted not to take the government run health care the vast majority of Republican members of Congress have opted to receive the very health benefits they are refusing to let other American buy into. Far too many of them are getting way with being hypocrites. It's good to see Weiner calling them out. As he says, "this is your chance, don't blow it."
