State GOP lawmakers who are trying to overturn health care reform are also taking its funds

From Huff Post, via Huff Post Hill:

Conservative legislators appear conflicted by the same, uneasy mix of death wishing and wallet-pilfering as Anna Nicole Smith did with wealthy octogenarians. "More than half a dozen states suing to overturn President Barack Obama's health care law are also claiming its subsidies for covering retired state government employees, according to a list released Tuesday by the administration. About 2,000 employers have been approved for the extra help to cover early retirees, mainly private businesses. But the list also includes seven states suing to overturn the health care overhaul as an unconstitutional power grab by the federal government. The seven are Arizona, Idaho, Indiana, Louisiana, Michigan, Nebraska and Nevada."
