Aladamnbama is one of my favorite Oh My God, Texas Ain’t So Bad places.

Congressvarmint Mo Brooks, Republican of you know where, went on the electric teevee with Jake Trapper and blamed pre-existing conditions on people who don’t live good.

“My understanding is that (the new proposal) will allow insurance companies to require people who have higher health care costs to contribute more to the insurance pool. That helps offset all these costs, thereby reducing the cost to those people who lead good lives, they’re healthy, they’ve done the things to keep their bodies healthy. And right now, those are the people — who’ve done things the right way — that are seeing their costs skyrocketing.”

I’m just wondering, how bad do you have to be to get yourself a pre-existing condition?  “Yeah, Mo, there I was sitting on the porch doing not one damn bad thing and then all a sudden my genes just kicked in and I caught myself a bad case of multiple sclerosis.”

So now at least we know the secrets of Lou Gehrig and his disease.  I guess he wasn’t as healthy or as good as we thought, huh?

How about Jimmy Kimmel’s infant son with a heart condition?  Was that kid smoking in the womb?  Seems like they should have stopped that.

And every woman with breast cancer needs to be asked, “What have you been doing with those breasts?”

Mo has unlocked the secrets of the universe.  You know, except for the fact that eventually you’re gonna die.

Thanks to Rob for the heads up.
