If the media spent as much time on explaining the debate over health care....

[WCGreen]

As they spent on the death of Michael Jackson, the people would be totally behind the plan...

If they also laid out the true costs of doing national health care reform and not doing health care reform instead of dissecting who is scoring political points, the whole decision would have been easy...

They did the same thing back in 2003 in the run up to the Iraq war...

1. Oh, absolutely!

But you know they're in the business of bread and circuses...

And explaining the finer points of the debate just doesn't fall in that category.

I suspect such an explanation wouldn't please their corporate masters, either.

2. And we still aren't organized to fight it

*sigh*

We need a canvassing team to hit the streets all over the country just like we do during an election.

3. They are getting set to do it here in Ohio this weekend...

6. Who they? n/t

8. The Obama people from the campaign...

Mrs. WCGreen was really involved with that campaign on a local leval and they are reving up to take the message door to door to all the people that they contacted in November...

[sandnsea]

11. Okay,

Our local people haven't wanted to do anything, they're all for single payer and only single payer. I think I'll contact the state people again and see if anything is going on with them and just do it by myself.

4. Only sensational events are reported,

[WCGreen]

5. Yellow Journalism...

Because they are quite simply, cowards...

[defendandprotect]

7. Or as much time as they spend helping to fix and cover up stolen elections . . .

John Ellis/Fox News 2000 should echo in all of our ears all the time -- !!!

Obviously the Repugs have been fixing elections since the late 1960's when the
electronic voting machines began to come in --

There were also large computers used by MSM not only to report vote totals which
was traditional for the press .... but to begin to PREDICT VOTE TOTALS . . .
and to CALL ELECTIONS for candidates and CALL ELECTORAL WINS.

Lot of power there -- and IMO it's long been used to corrupt government.
