Rushed conclusions

A few weeks ago, Rush Limbaugh told his deranged listeners that the cost of healthcare was driven up by 'those of [us] that regularly exercise,' 'all [us] exercise freaks, [we]'re the one putting stress on the healthcare system.' On the other side, those who are inactive probably don't even know their doctor's name.

Well, today the New York Times published this article saying that it is precisely the obese that spend more and money on healthcare and, I will dare say, are more likely to know their doctor's name, as a result.

Below is the only video I could find of Rush spewing that nonsense.
