Funny: Finger Bitten Off at Health Care Reform Demonstration... But it's OK... he has Medicare

First a health care reform supporter was slugged at a town hall, and now the supporters have gone opponents one better. Not that it's a good thing, mind you. The finger of a health care opponent was bitten off at a demonstration, not town hall, in Thousand Oaks, CA.

What's interesting is that the victim has ... ta da ... Medicare. That's one thing that's been notable in some town halls. Despite the fact that Medicare is government run, one person, for example, said that government had to keep its hands off his Medicare.

Ventura County Sheriff's Capt. Frank O'Hanlon said about 100 people demonstrating in favor of health care reforms rallied Wednesday night on a street corner. One protester walked across the street, and got into a fist fight with one of about 25 counter-demonstrators.

O'Hanlon said that during the fist fight, the man bit off the left pinky of a 65-year-old male counter-protester. The attacker fled but authorities say they have a good description.

A hospital spokeswoman says the top joint of the man's pinky was bitten off, including the entire fingernail. It was not reattached. The hospital added that the man had Medicare.
