An HBO Newsroom Inspired Rant Over the U.S. Health Care System

If you are distressed by the United States' decline, doubt American exceptionalism, share in the angst infecting the progressivist salons and enjoy Aaron Sorkin's tightly written diatribes, you're probably already aware of (or even forwarded an email link to) this angry rant by the lead Jeff Daniels character in the HBO series "The Newsroom."

Unable to resist, the inspired Disease Management Care Blog tapped Xtranormal to imagine a Newsroom-esque angry rant over the widely accepted notion that U.S. health care is so awfully broken.
