DNC slams Pawlenty: He's the real joke

DNC Press Secretary, Hari Sevugan, hits Tim Pawlenty for calling Barack Obama's health care plan a "joke" on Fox News yesterday.

"Tim Pawlenty, who has rarely seen a health care program he didn't want to cut, thinks that health insurance reform is a "joke" - but the only "joke" here is Tim Pawlenty and a Republican Party which thinks it's better to play politics and obstruct reform when millions of American families are struggling with skyrocketing health insurance costs. The truth is, as President Obama is working tirelessly to fix the broken health care system, Republicans like Tim Pawlenty would rather go on national television to chastize progress while offering no ideas of their own. And that's no laughing matter."

The comment about the joke everyone's serious about.
