Hypocrite House Republicans Explain Why They Won't Be Giving Up Their Govt-Sponsored Health Care

Think Progress caught up with some GOP House members who are for repealing health care reform but refuse to give up their government-sponsored health benefits.

Writes TP: "In sum, only eight GOP congressman, or three percent of all House Republicans, have opted out of the Federal Employees Health Benefits Plan. One Republican loudly complained about having his own government-sponsored health insurance delayed approximately four weeks. But most GOPers have quietly continued to accept government-sponsored health care while loudly decrying the government’s role in helping provide health care to a segment of the American public."
