Quote of the Day

Stephen Colbert, comedian and host of the Colbert report, on Bush's healthcare proposal to allow tax deductions to encourage greater access to health insurance among the uninsured:

It's simple. Most people who can't afford health insurance also are too poor to owe taxes. But if you give them a deduction from the taxes they don't owe, they can use the money they're not getting back from what they haven't given to buy the healthcare they can't afford.
