[rndmprsn]

well mine at least...but anyhow, has ANY PREZ CANDIDATE made a statement about this yet?

1. It should be

What a disgrace -and the kid was insured to boot. Michael Moore hit the nail on the head. Time to penetrate the skulls of those corporate thieves.

2. Republicans set it up so corporations could get away with this theft and murder...

It's got to stop.

4. I hope it is seen by the public as the criminal act that it is

and that there's one more nail in the coffin of corporate killer health care in this country.

7. I wish an energetic and ambitious D.A. would think about filing manslaughter charges

Involuntary manslaughter, being wanton and reckless disregard for human life when knowing the dangers involved. In some jurisdictions, it might rise to the level of depraved indifference to human life, where the mens rea might be similar to the malice required in a murder charge. Particularly in this case, there was a duty to act, as there is a fiduciary relationship between insurer and insured.

8. omg, is that really their logo?

How revolting. A business of killing.

9. Possible Google bomb

in the making.

I did a Cigna blog search and there are already two blogs with "Cigna Sucks."

http://www.calacanis.com/2007/12/21/cigna-sucks/

Question: If everyone did a blog post saying "Cigna Sucks!" or "Screw you CIGNA!" would that get to the front page of the WSJ/NYT? Would it impact CIGNA's stock price?! Would it get to the #1 result on Google for Cigna ABOVE Cigna's own home page?!

(Looks like a search blog with related terms. Cigna will definitely be dragged through the mud.)

11. I hope this gets bad enough soon so that people star taking real action

I would like to see the Cigna execs convicted and executed in public. As it stands, the Repukelicon's anti-American legislation the family probably can't even sure.
