Americans for Prosperity will be holding a town hall health care meeting today in my city.

Moderated by John Stossel no less. That should be a real mutual admiration society. Talk about a stacked deck.

A statewide conservative group will host a health care town hall meeting today at the La Crosse Center.

The meeting, hosted by Americans for Prosperity, will be from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the La Crosse Center's North Hall. The room will be set up theater-style, with seats for 1,500 people.

Americans for Prosperity is a four-year-old group that concentrates on fiscally conservative issues. In Wisconsin, the group is against the cap-and-trade policy to fight global climate change, efforts to make it easier for unions to organize and health care reform.

John Stossel, an ABC News personality, will moderate today's meeting.

1. Why do groups like this always have ironic names?

Americans for Prosperity. Ha! Americans Duped Into Fighting for the Prosperity of Big Corporations is too unwieldy, I suppose.

2. There's one going on in NW Arkansas this morning. Rep. John Boozman, Sen. Tom

Coburn, and Sen. Barrasso, all GOP, are having a joint session with the people who can attend a morning meeting in the middle of the work week.

3. Ask them why, if they're supposed to be non-partisan,

Why do they host their website at the same host as the RNC/GOP?

4. Stossel is in good company, then.

Fake 'journalist', fake organization.

5. Like DINOs, why does Stossel even make a pretense at being a journalist?
