A Gut Check on What Obama Means by 'Fairness'...

Last month, the President told a crowd of supporters in Texas that he was glad his unpopular health care law is known as "Obamacare" to its opponents: "You know what, they're right, I do care. I care about folks who get sick …" This claim would have been more truthful had he told them he cares about some folks who become ill. Indeed, it would have been more consistent with his actual behavior had he said, "I care about myself when I get sick." President Obama, you see, has been availing himself of medical tests his HHS apparatchiks won't approve for payment if Medicare patients receive them.
