Grandstanding by Pawlenty on not taking federal funds when Minnesotans' health is at stake and funds could be helpful, that's getting enough coverage. Hence, I only give the Google News item link, follow-up as you like. Ambition trumps decency, again, but after all, it's Pawlenty. And is he pulling a reversal in mid-stream, one Michele Bachmann would be proud of, take the money, don't take the money, qualify taking the money, some money not others, abstinence from taking the money - except for abstinence? Go figure.
A piece of work. Luckily a Minnesota lame duck, now a wannabe national headache.
