Healthcare 101 (explained in plain English) for some of our conservative friends.

1. Thanks for this post!
The writing is a bit hard to read though.

A loving environment is a safe environment. Most of those on the right need a hug, it's as crazy as that but that's all they need they've been scared so bad they can't tune in to that feeling. They're simply angry for little reason because they don't want people to know they're vunerable and it's importnat for everyone in the world they can do that. The guns prove nothing, the violence prove nothing, it's trying to prove to people they're not scared, when they're terrfied. As Hartmann put so well campssion comes through strength. A lot of banners like that might point out to them what makes a genuine tough guy.

4. That;
And all but 'USA Today' are government or Democratic leaning sites and/or organizations. How many freepers will actually visit these sites with an open mind? About as often as I would visiting, say, AEI or such.

5. yeah but that's not the point
even the most demented ones will see it once they get sick. It will not change their views but it will take some of the wind out of their sails. But the most important thing is the swing voters. Also, real life numbers will put an end to the circular firing squad on our side because pro single payer people will realize that this is a giant step forward and it's more than just insurance reform: it is reforming the whole economy, it's a pocketbook issue even for those who don't deal with illness every day simply because it transfers power from the investor class to the real economy.
