***So let me see if I get this. Our side is the one with the homemade signs and little to no experience actually protesting anything – thus, our collective awkwardness while protesting Obama Care. Their side has the fully laminated, pre-made to order signs – each with a union bug, pre-written chants and songs, AND free bus rides from out of state…. and WE are the astroturfers??? Get real.
***Here’s another thought: How come every time someone like myself speaks out against Obama’s version of health reform, which is yet even MORE political controls on our already bogged down health system, we get accused of being on the insurance industry’s payroll – or some other corporate payroll? Now here’s the hypocrisy in that. Point me to a time when the pro-war, conservative movement ever claimed that those against the Iraq war were somehow on Saddam’s payroll. Or show me when anyone in the conservative movement ever claimed that those FOR politicized medicine are somehow on Obama’s payroll.
***Speaking of Obama… if you’d like to meet and greet with the wonderful folks participating in the Obama health care bus tour, be downtown tomorrow at 5pm. You might even want to RSVP to make sure you have a spot…
***Our good friend Ari Armstrong over at FreeColorado.com has just started a 4 part series on health rationing. The first 2 parts are up now. Please go check them out, they are essential reading for this debate.
