Father's Day

Keith Olbermann's ailing father inspired a full episode of Countdown dedicated to a special commentary on America's health care system that aired last night.



Do watch this when you get a chance, especially anyone who's ever had a father, grandfather, or any relative or loved one in the hospital who has been gravely ill. Our health care system is broken. It needs to be fixed. It's something we'll all need at some point in our lives.

The transcript of the commentary is here, and it's one of those things you'll be gobsmacked at reading. We all know someone who has had an experience like this. Perhaps we are that someone.
