Government as Faith Healer

Posted by Thomas DiLorenzo at October 12, 2004 04:02 PM

I was with some friends last Friday when the presidential debate came on tv, so we decided to order a pizza and watch The Two Stooges perform. Near the end, Kerry said he had a plan for the economy, a plan for seniors, a plan for Medicare, a plan for the military, a plan for stem cell research, a plan for education, a plan for a healthier America, a plan for, well, anything and everythhing. Upon hearing that I said Kerry must think of himself -- and government -- as one of those television preachers who puts his hand on the forehead of a woman in a wheelchair, shouts "Heal!", and the poor woman stands up and walks on her own for the first time in her life.

Sure enough, Drudge reports John Edwards as saying this today:

"When John Kerry is president, people like Christopher Reeve are going to walk. Get up out of that wheelchair and walk again!"

Heal!
