Rendell plays politics with health care

Excellent op-ed piece in today's edition of the Allentown Morning Call about Gov. Ed Rendell's propaganda campaign to steer Pennsylvania toward a Hillary Clinton-style system of socialized medicine.

Two state lawmakers -- Rep. Doug Reichley (R-134th Dist.) and Rep. Craig Dally (R-138th Dist.) take Rendell to task on his administration's strong-arm tactics to force Pennsylvania businesses to pay for the health care of uninsured residents.

Here's a couple of questions nobody has asked Rendell: Why has the number of uninsured workers in Pennsylvania nearly tripled since Rendell became governor? And why did the governor wait into his fifth year in office before addressing this "crisis"?

Read the full commentary by Reichley and Dally here.
