    Up until this point she has received the same standard of care that an uninsured gang -banger who incurred a similar injury would have received.

    Where the congresswoman is going to radically part ways with the gangbanger under the current system is after she is physically healed and her rehab process begins.

    Politicians already have a carte blanche Health Care System. They have the equivalent to an Elitists Gold Card.

    Her astronaut husband would have recieved "end-of-life" counseling as she waited 3 days to see a doctor that might know what he was doing....resulting in early termination to make room for the dozens of Mexican babies with the sniffles crowding the ER.

    As a congresswoman, she is well taken care of. She retains that health insurance until she leaves Congress, whether or not the new health care law was in effect.

    As a member of Congress--Obamacare does not apply to them--they have a choice of 19 different plane--none of which you or I can get!

    The same as now.....Congress is exempt from Obamacare.

    Source(s): We can't expect our elected oficials to be treated like us little people.
