Government Health Care for All, and Other Fairy Tales

... And this just in! 
The Tooth Fairy has announced she's now paying $1000 per tooth and Santa's elves are working overtime to meet Jolly Old St. Nick's pledge to double the amount of goodies under out trees this year!

Meanwhile, back in the real world, congressmen are listening to a burgeoning cohort of constituents who don't believe this crap anymore.
