Talk about getting screwed

Background: On September 2, Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards said that his universal health care proposal would require that Americans go to the doctor for preventive care.

John Edwards recently announced that his universal health care proposal requires us to seek preventative care. Given I am over 40, I assume I would be required to get yearly prostate exams. This would add literal meaning to being screwed by the government.

If the Times prints this I'd like to nominate you for some sort of award.

There's a National Best LTE competition, isn't there? Instant winner.

Given the standards under which the Metro Times appears to labor, I don't know if getting this published is that big of a stretch. But thank you for your support.
