2. You have to watch the beginning part to hear Limbaugh talk about...
...people being "left alone to pursue their excellence to the degree they wish," and Shatner interrupts and says "but you need SOME regulation"...

That happens in the first 30 seconds.

7. It was clear that a "conversation" was not going to take place
Limbaugh arrived with his talking points and that's all he was interested in. Still, it was amusing to see Shatner's expressions.

6. Watch it for the irony alone. Utterly fascinating that after
Edited on Tue Jan-11-11 05:42 PM by Ineeda
immediately saying horrible, untrue things about health care reform, (where Shatner says that rich people can get medical care) Rushbo talks extensively about the multiple medical procedures he underwent dealing with his hearing loss. Total disconnect. I wonder if Shatner pointed it out?

8. Rush is too liberal
People shouldn't have insurance at all. If they can't afford health care with the cash they have in their pockets, they should die.
