Best Health Care comparison joke I've heard in a while

At a conference, a Brit, a German, and an American were talking about recovery times from traumatic surgery.

The Brit said he could transplant a kidney into a man so smoothly that the patient could be up and looking for work after six weeks.

The German said he could transplant a heart so smoothly that the patient could be up and looking for work after five weeks.

The American said he could transplant a Texan to Washington so smoothly that half the country would be looking for work after two terms.
