To me, it all seems a little disingenuous.

To me, that seems unfair. All the liberals in my set are very sincere about taking care of the little people. They pay their taxes without complaint and give very, very generously to charity. The better off they are, the more they count their blessings by spreading them around. They may be misguided in the notion that the world owes everyone a living and that government is the best way to provide it, but they are undoubtedly sincere about spreading the wealth. I have no reason to question John/John's embrace of that model and I don't think it warranted to call them "disingenuous."

Unless, of course, you just said that to provoke John into a response, in which case forget I mentioned it. <g>

Re your question about the difference between Kerry's approach and Hillary's, as I recall, Hillary was pushing a single-payer system whereas Kerry seems to be advocating some kind of a hybrid Medicaid/employer program just for the uninsured.
