From the Rethug Assignment Desk...

...straight to the front page of the Kaplan Daily comes this expose of AARP, which supposedly stands to benefit from their support of health insurance reform. Since House Rethug staffers are quoted freely in the article, one must assume they acted as "reporter" Dan Eggen's assignment editor. Weighing in with equally altruistic motives is a spokesperson for Alliant Group who was a staffer for Sen. Charles "My Assly Is" Grassley (Rethug-IA) before the revolving door transported him to his new career. It would be beyond the ability of Kaplan's crack reporters to cover all the straight-up chicanery coming from the anti-reform side; it's so much easier to just take this weasel smear masquerading as a news story, cut off the Rethug press release header and call it a column. The Fox Nutwork will be proud of you boys!
