Andy Harris..Hard at Work

We usually try to stay out of politics, but the hypocrisy factor is just too high on this one. Politico -- and many other media outlets --are reporting that our soon to be Rep. Andy Harris caused quite a stir demanding he get his goverment health insurance early.

This is of course, the same man who does not believe in government subsidized health care, caught complaining that he would have to wait an entire month after he was sworn in to receive the benefit. He was quoted as saying, ""This is the only employer I've ever worked for where you don't get coverage the first day you are employed," and he spokeswoman said he was merely pointing out how "inefficient" the government run plan was.

We would really like to know where he has been working. In our indentured servitude as reporters, we sometimes had to wait as long as 3 months, with the shortest being 1month.
