Ann Coulter's Health Care Series

This is a summary of Ann Coulter's series on Health Care. It lists the Administration's main talking points on this issue and her rebuttals thereto. I liked this serics because of the pointed and sharp nature of the responses as well as the summary of the supporters' reasons.

Some of her talking points were redundant and some were covered in multiple installments. I edited these points so that we can have a good summary of the health care debate.
