"It is a matter of Fox turning reality on its head with, among other tactics, its endless repetition of its uber-lie: "The American people do not want health-care reform.""
When a guy uses a lie as a foundation of his argument, it saves me from reading the rest.
I listen to an average of 3 hours of Fox a night. O'Reilly, Sean, and Greta all proclaim repeatedly that: "Americans want healthcare reform" and segue into some form of: "They just don't want this healthcare reform", a fact borne out by mainstream pollsters such as Rasmussen and Gallup, and now also proven by Dem pollsters such as Pat Caddel (sic?) and Carville.
This monstrosity is either a dead horse, or the main issue for the next two election cycles (the buttons and rallying cry of the winning party will simply be: "Repeal" or maybe: "It's the repeal, stupid"), and/or a fast-tracked Constitutional "veto" if "passed" by the aptly named Slaughter Resolution.
And that's assuming the unlikely circumstance of substantial economic recovery, deficit reduction, etc.
Eschew the koolaid, smell the coffee. Your party, and your Party, are both smelling like three-day-dead fish.
