Kids 1, Insurance 0

“Health plans recognize the significant hardship that a family faces when they are unable to obtain coverage for a child with a pre-existing condition,” said Karen M. Ignagni, president of America’s Health Insurance Plans, a trade group. Accordingly, she said, “we await and will fully comply with” the rules.

The White House immediately claimed victory.

In a Twitter message, Robert Gibbs, the White House press secretary, scored the tug of war as “Kids 1, insurance 0.”

This is the kind of change the Republicans want to repeal? You bet.

If only little kids with staggering sicknesses had crude oil in them, then the GOP would start paying attention. Send them palettes of cash.
