Bush Vetoes Fair Doctor Pay to Protect HMO Executives
Bush objects to the fact that subsidies for private insurers to participate in Medicare, more accurately a license to skim and further bankrupt the fund, have been reduced to avoid a doctor pay cut, and so he has vetoed the bill.
Well, it looks like its time for an override vote, and the text for the attack ad writes itself, so I would say that it's better than 50/50 that the veto will be overridden.
If it isn't, watch as doctors, facing already low fees being cut by 10.6%, reduce services, and patients scream....at Republicans.
