Heavy infant denied health insurance.

bump.

but look the bright side. at least his parents enjoyed fattening him up.

heavy infant ? what kind of newspeak is this ? PORKY BOY !

Could our nation get any colder than this? We certainly have the values of a large corporation.

By the numbers, Alex is in the 99th percentile for height and weight for babies his age. Insurers don't take babies above the 95th percentile, no matter how healthy they are otherwise.

"I could understand if we could control what he's eating. But he's 4 months old. He's breast-feeding. We can't put him on the Atkins diet or on a treadmill," joked his frustrated father, Bernie Lange, a part-time news anchor at KKCO-TV in Grand Junction. "There is just something absurd about denying an infant."

Absurd. If he's breastfed, he's clearly not over eating, and he would be healthy. But this certainly doesn't support a case for UHC if that's the point of the OP.

YOU can't put him on a diet. I CAN.

I am willing to ( heroically ) share some of Alex's calories by sucking on your wife's titties ! ( since apparently it is too hard for you )

In a perfect society your child wouldn't be denied health coverage because a moron like you would be sterilized in the first place.

Already they are beginning to deny so many things to people. They cut down on insured diseases and everything. Now weight too. Ridiculous.

You're clearly retarded. :rollinglaugh:

I hope this sort of post doesn't represent this entire forum.
