The insanity began in the name of health care
Very few will remember that the first signs (we mean literally) of insanity were about health care reform. As we watched with utter dismay, the administrations young communication machine failing to articulate its strategy about health care, signage of insanity took control of the health care debate and sanity disappeared.
Even days before its passage, strong supporters like Lawrence ODonnell of MSNBC predicted that the health care reform bill would never pass. The grip of insanity kept growing larger and larger after the passage of the bill and the administrations response to the insanity continued to be insanely meek.
Our call to action to bring sanity in the health care reform debate will start with a challenge to the administration to DEFEND HEALTHCARE reform.
