Too funny:

Face-lifts, tummy tucks and hair transplants could be hit with a new tax to help finance the trillion-dollar healthcare overhaul plan, CONGRESS DAILY reports.

The Senate Finance Committee has discussed imposing a 10% excise tax on cosmetic surgery deemed unnecessary for medical purposes.

DAILY's Peter Cohn reveals: The idea was broached in a meeting with OMB Director Orszag in mid-July, after which Senate Finance Chairman Max Baucus told reporters he had heard some "interesting," "creative," and "kind of fun" ideas.

Ha Ha LOL --- Now this is a tax I can get behind. Let's have a tax that hits all those fake phony Hollywood elites who fawn over Obama night and day. As Botox Biden say "it's patriotic to pay MORE taxes".

Of course we all know this is the one piece of the legislation that will not make it into the real Bill when it passes. Not a chance Pelosi is going to let it stay in ---- she'd be broke.

They'll probably replace it with a tax on reconstructive surgery after mastectomies on women over 50. Or some other tax equally unfair to the middle class "older" woman. You know the segment of the population all the election polls showed didn't back/vote Obama.
