His wife's family could pick up a $750,000 hospital tab out of their petty cash box. Most Americans aren't quite so lucky. But Republican senators don't care about "most Americans." Republican senators care about people who can toss away $750,000 out of petty cash, because THAT is who finances them. For those who do NOT have that kind of spare change, call the God Squad every time an election rolls around to remind them that Jesus loves Republicans just a little bit more.
