Talking Points Memo picked up another one this morning: a freshman GOPper congressvarmint who had no idea who pays for her socialistic government-subsidized death-panel health insurance.

New York’s Ann Marie Buerkle held a town hall meeting.

Buerkle, who voted to repeal the health care reform act, was twice asked about the health insurance she receives as a government employee. At first she said she couldn’t understand why people were so interested in her health insurance, and that taxpayers didn’t pay anything for it. She later corrected herself after being handed a note from a staffer. Like most employees, she pays for a portion of her insurance and her employer, the government, pays the rest, she said.

Maybe we should replace the death panels with dumb panels.
