From Friday’s Fox News All-Stars.
On whether the new federal requirement that all electronic health records include a body mass index (a measure of obesity) might one day be used in rationing health care:
I don’t think the problem is rationing health care. They’re going to use it to ration food.
On the report that BP lobbied for the release of the Lockerbie bomber in order to win a Libyan oil deal:
I would not be surprised if oil companies lobbied. There is a long history going back decades of oil companies selling their souls, French Oil Company in Iraq, Armand Hammer and Occidental in Libya. This is almost universal for oil for concessions, etc.
The blame resides with the British government who could resist lobbying or accept it. It made the decision to accept the release. Apparently the Obama administration signed off on it. In the end, the buck stops with governments and not lobbyists.
