Actually, according to the Miami Herald, Medicare has been footing the bill since 2002 (?). Last couple of years, anyway. The malpractice money is gone.

And who paid to fly the 200+ members of the US House back to DC so they could vote on this?

Also, as to the videotape. Those are a few seconds of edited tape. Greer, the judge in the case, has 4+ hours of videotape showing her staring blankly, and not responding to any stimulus, to any person, etc.

In other words, the videotape that the parents/Right To Lifers have provided all the media outlets, is, shall we say, a tad misleading?
