Animals Versus People

By Kleinheider Posted on April 22, 2008 at 3:53 pm

The Donkey’s Mouth is confused by the actions of Senator Jim Tracy. It seems not long ago he voted against letting the Rural Health Act out of the Senate Education Committee, a bill which would forgiven the student loans of doctors agreeing to serve in rural areas, but then signed on as co-sponsor to a bill which would do something similar for veterinary students:

So, is Tracy trying to argue — in contrast to what everyone knows — that the rural areas of Tennessee have more doctors than they can use or is he trying to argue that quality health care is more important to animals than it is to humans?
