Besides somehow twisting this to reward Republican donors and hasten the demise of the middle class, while simultaneously hastening the rapture - we should take this healthcare 'proposal' very seriously. Mark my words, this will be an issue that resonates with 'voters' (i.e. those who make more informed decisions voting for the next American Idol than President of the United States).

"In a half-hour address to 7,000 Republican donors, Bush promised a "new era of ownership" that would give Americans more control over their health insurance and savings plans and make healthcare less expensive. Though he offered few specifics, it was the president's strongest suggestion yet that he would forge ahead with a plan to create private retirement savings and health accounts."

"During the next four years, we'll help more citizens to own their health plan, to own a piece of their retirement, to own their own home or their own small business," Bush said. "We'll usher in a new era of ownership in America with an agenda to help all our citizens save and build and invest so every person owns a part of the American dream."
