Here' how Fox Nation advertised the Watters piece:
Acupuncture! Its very existence is so hysterically funny!
Watters gets to the acupuncturist at 1:02 in the clip. There's this exchange:
"Do you have ObamaCare?" Watters asked.HAR HAR HAR HAR HAR!
"ObamaCare does cover acupuncture," the nurse said.
Um, you know what else covers acupuncture? My employer-provided insurance. I popped my zip code into my the provider search on my insurer's website and found 23 acupuncturists within range who'll take my insurance. (I live in Manhattan, so your results may vary.)
I'm an alternative-medicine skeptic, but acupuncture's effectiveness seems to be demonstrated on a fairly regular basis. However, I'm sure the O'Reilly audience thinks acupuncture is jut the sort of exotic nutball idea that foreignerObama would advocate, with their tax dollars. Impeach!
Christ, what an offensive, smarmy asshole.
ReplyDeleteI happen to be very well acquainted with all those neighborhoods. He's treating them like some kind of World's Fair International Fucking Village. Disgusting.
I get a small amount of satisfaction knowing that this self-centered jerkoff has totally missed what's wonderful about Los Angeles.
"I'm Watters. And you're in my world here."

ReplyDeleteAccupuncture is older than western "civilization".
ReplyDeleteOlder than "traditional" medicine.
Offensive, yes, smarmy, yes, but above all what a rube!
ReplyDeleteObamacare doesn't cover loofahs or dildoes.
