War Handwavium

Representative Pete Olson (R-TX) held a Town Hall meeting and told the story of “Britney”, a pregnant woman who could not find a doctor to treat a heart condition of her unborn child, and then said “Britney” was convinced her child would not have been born if there was a public option.

People in the audience then started shouting that it was private insurance that had turned her down, not the government, therefore “Britney” was a poster child FOR a public option, not against it as Olson tried to portray.

Olson shut down the meeting 47 seconds later and went home.
