Health care commentary from a guy who wore a sock on his hand

From an article on Fox News' new online video strategy, comes this little exchange from a Fox & Friends discussion on health care.

Referring to an article he recently read in The Atlantic Monthly, Foley says he hopes some kind of health care bill passes, but is concerned. “I’ve known that something needed to be done for a long time,” he muses. “I think it’s going to come down to a watered-down bill that won’t help anybody as much as it could.”
...
But Foley continues earnestly, explaining that he’s had his share of issues with insurance companies in the past, given the somewhat violent nature of his work. “People in our network were getting injured too often,” he says.

Now, "What's so special about that, besides the fact that it sounded reasoned and was accidentally allowed on TV", you might ask. Well first off, someone said it on Fox News. Secondly, someone said it on Fox & Friends, which might be the dumbest morning show ever created. Thirdly, the "Foley" who said it, was pro-wrestler Mick Foley, aka Mankind, Dude Love, and Cactus Jack. That's right, and man who did this

was not only on a morning show to discuss health care reform as it is currently situated in bill form, he did so in an intelligent manner using things he had read and his own personal experiences, defying all known logic of TV news commentary.

I guess the question that remains is, if Mick Foley can go through a lifetime of brutal wrestling matches, chair beatings, table smashings, all maner of encounters with barbed wire and thumbtacks, and still discuss health care intelligently on the TV, what the hell kind of vicious beatings have the rest of the pundits endured that has rendered them unable to? What the hell must have our elected betters in the Senate have endured?

So, Fox? How about instead of another intelligence affronting hour of Hannity, you instead stage a Hell-in-the-Cell match between Foley and, say, Steve "Dr. Death" Williams. You can rename him Dr. Death Panel. The winner/one with the most blood left in his body, will get to deliver a 15 minute prepared speech on health legislation. Think of the ratings! Plus, It might just be the most informative thing that has ever been on your network. Give it a think, we'll talk later.
