Sen. Mark Kirk Has Skin in the Game. Twice.

Below is a video of Sen. Mark Kirk. He had a stroke back in January. He appears to have left hemiparesis, and some dysarthria. He seems like a really hard worker who deserves to get every bit of recovery he can. He's a great inspiration. But.... He has this line at the very end of the video:
"I can't wait to go back to work to vote to spend less..."
He is a fan of the way health care is being run now. And I guess he should be. It seems as if no expense was spared in his case. He probably has money, and that doesn't hurt. But much of it was paid for by his congressional healthcare plan. And here's some funny...

"Repealing President Obama’s healthcare law would let members of Congress keep their government-subsidized insurance coverage after they retire — a benefit they lost under the health law."
