Let's take someone who has paid insurance premiums for 25 years. Like a relative of mine. A close relative. After 25 years of being healthy as a horse s/he is diagnosed with a serious medical condition.
Immediately his/her insurance company drops their coverange insisting that the illness had to be a pre-existing condition.
The medical community is not a charity. Someone has to pay for it. Hope they saved their nickels and dimes.
So after years of paying those fees it's perfectly ok for them to just drop you because the medical community is not a charity??? NEITHER IS THE GUY WHO GAVE HIS MONEY TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY ALL THOSE YEARS
When a swimmer or runner wins a gold medal they don't give the medal to the coach who told them to go out and run or swim fast. All they did was give an order, someone else actually accomplished what needed to be done.

No, but if the swimmer or runner is any kind of sports(wo)man they will acknowledge their coaches contribution from the pedestal.
For those 25 years they were covered i.e. 'received the magazines'.
There is a medical/legal definition of 'pre-existing condition'. So either the person did not handle the issue correctly, or legal action is necessary. There are reasons why some of us have multiple lawyers.
My reference was to the hospital as not being a charity. That has nothing to do with the insurance company. We don't provide medical care (which is expensive) for free. If that is the case, then you should be able to get your groceries for free, your car fixed for free... hey, everything for free. Woo hoo! Utopia. Now let's get back to reality. (and an evaluation of reading comprehension)
President Romney will be a president that has had success in the financial community, working in the private sector for 25 years. He ran the Olympics and has had experience being a Governor. Obama's experience of being a community organizer, professor and one term senator before being president is pathetic compared to Romney's real world experience.
If he is in support of the private sector, that pretty much tells us exactly where he'd lead this country.

Obama killed bin Laden. Deal with it.
Or did you think that George W. Bush himself personally stopped all those foiled terrorist attacks each and every one he got credit for.
Maybe you also believe that sometime between his swearing in and lunch in the Senate Dining room, or where ever they have that lunch, newly elected President Reagan took a super fast plane to Iran and singlehandedly freed those hostages, for which the right gave him credit
