Rep. Jeff Wagner thinks health insurance premiums are for kicks

by Eric on December 9, 2009 · View Comments

h81Modern already documented the douchebaggery of one Kris Jordan. It doesn’t stop there. Jeff Wagner appears ready to trump the youngster Kris. He is, afterall, a veteran of douchebaggery it seems:

Rep. Jeff Wagner, R-Sycamore, said his amendment to prohibit insurers from denying coverage for any medical reason was proposed ?tongue-in-cheek.?

?If we?re going to drive the insurance industry out of Ohio, why do it an inch at a time?? said Sycamore. The House tabled his amendment.

So in retaliation for proposing that health insurance companies – you know – COVER HEALTH PROBLEMS, this dick proposes they not deny coverage for any medical reason AS A JOKE.

Ha ha very funny motherfucker. I supposed that in your little skit you don’t have an autistic kid or anyone else in your family with expensive treatments not covered in your health insurance.

HA HA HA

Here I thought we paid these companies great sums of money for shits and grins. There’s no nefarious liberal plot here asshat. The reason they make money is to provide coverage. How dare we ask them to!

More problematic than the content of the amendment is that he's busy putting forth legislative JOKES when he should be taking his job seriously and working on legitimate legislation. Doesn't sound like he's very legit.

Jeff Wagner is my state rep, and our district has been under-represented since the first day he took office. Thank The Lord that he is term-limited. All he cares about is abortion, gays, and evangelicals. He makes himself available and visible
by attending local meetings, fooling the public, then goes back to Columbus and
does NOTHING for his constituents. All you have to do in our district, to get
elected is to be a Bible thumping repug. He probably thinks Glen Beck and
Rush Limballs are wonderful.

How callous of Wagner. He should be censured, or tarred and feathered.

I should probably qualify this: “The reason they make money is to provide coverage.”

The reason we GIVE them money is to provide coverage when we need it. The reason they make money (and lots of it) is by denying it.

I look forward to when he has cancer.

Eric December 9, 2009 at 10:26 pm

I don't. I get your point, but I wouldn't look forward to anyone having cancer.

Does that Mustache count as a preexisting condition?

you appear to give credence to the belief that all human life is sacred. :)
