Crawford Ain't Just A Town In Texas Where They Built A Set to Take Pictures of George Bush

I always hate it when wingnuts mess up words that should sound deliciously reminiscent of freshwater crustaceans (no, not Austerian Economists, they're not delicious). Crawford should be a shallow place where you can cross the creek and catch crayfish. Instead, it's GW's brush clearin', Reaganesque poser pad smack in the middle of the biggest drought in generations, and it's this wingnut South Carolina House member Kris Crawford:
"It is good politics to oppose the black guy in the White House right now, especially for the Republican Party."
If that grade of wingnut was on Wall St. in 2005, they'd have stamped AAA all over his ass and sold him to your pension fund.

He was saying, in the quote, that he would have been brave and totally not racist if he did something which was admittedly bad politics for him, so he didn't. He voted on party lines to shoot down the bill expanding Medicaid in his state to a half a million people.

But, wait. It gets better. Kris Crawford is an ER doctor. I suppose it's possible that an ER doctor might be unaware of the fact that we already have the most expensive socialized medicine in the world, and it's called the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act, signed in 1986 by that Medicare-loving, commie bastard Reagan.

Assuming the good Doctor is aware of the EMTALA, that would mean he voted to spend more money later by voting for less money now. Now, that's conservative!
