That liberal Jack Cafferty

On CNN's American Morning this morning resident conservative curmudgeon Jack Cafferty, who is apparently pretty fed up with the media's obsession over the Bush Guard memos, said the following,
    CAFFERTY: Kerry, just -- you know, he really can't catch a break. I mean, every time he does something, this kind of stuff kind of moves him to the 'B' section of the newspaper or the newscast.

    I just got through for over a year paying $400 a month for health insurance on a 22-year-old kid that could be the poster child for health. But because she is no longer a student, she couldn't qualify for health insurance -- 400 buck as month. That's $5,000 a year health insurance premiums for a kid that's perfectly healthy. That's baloney. There's 40 million people have no insurance at all. Why don't they talk to us about how they're going to fix that kind of stuff? Who cares about Vietnam and the Air National Guard?
This is the truth, and I know this is the truth because we pay the same amount monthly for insurance for our perfectly healthy 22-year-old. Jack Cafferty can afford that $400 a month.

How many others can't?
