The Brothers Emanuel

So, this isn't news (it originally aired June 16th this year)--but who wouldn't want to watch Ezekiel Emanuel, Chair of the Department of Bioethics at The Clinical Center of the NIH, duke it out with his two brothers, Rahm--soon to be Chief-of-Staff for the Obama administration--and Ari, on whom the unforgettable character Ari Gold of HBO's Entourage is based?

In this conversation they are talking about--you guessed it--healthcare.

Watch the video. You'll laugh. You'll marvel. You'll ask yourself, "So is it genes or environment?" Or maybe you'll wish you could be an Emanuel brother (or sister) and join in on their conversation....
