He told the five workers to go about their business, but he ordered them not to try to leave. If one of you tries to leave, he said, I will kill myself along with the others. Then he walked over to a desk and asked for Hillarys phone number. Hillary was in Iowa, talking to voters about her plan to provide national health care for everyone in America. None of the workers had her cell phone number. Upset, Morgan dialed 911. He told the dispatcher that if they didnt give him Hillarys phone number immediately, he would blow up her campaign office and everyone in it. The dispatcher asked him to please hold on while he tried to get the number. Police and the FBI drove over to the office and surrounded it. The dispatcher gave Morgan the correct phone number. He dialed it, and Hillary answered her phone. Morgan explained to her that he was not getting the medical treatment that he needed. Every time he went to visit his doctor, his doctor was out to lunch--even at 10 in the morning and 4 in the afternoon. How can my doctor eat lunch all day long? he asked Hillary. Hillary said she didnt know, but that she would try to get a law passed forbidding doctors to have all-day lunches. |
