Olbermann: O'Donnell on No Universal Coverage - 'That's When We See Explosion on Internet'
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=385&topic_id=367838&mesg_id=367838

Keith Olbermann and Lawrence O'Donnell's pithy exchange points to a REAL reaction online and in the streets, if the public is screwn out of universal health care coverage, YET AGAIN. O'Donnell points out the Internet and MSNBC didn't exist in the '90's when "we" were drafting legislation. This time it's different.

They also discuss the business-as-usual policy of Democrats expecting to always have the votes at the last minute, cuz where else are all ya'll suckers gonna go? That oughtta get some hackles up.

So, what? Explosion? Barricades? :shrug:

Where is our effective online action? Where is our non-violent Progressive Movement, ready to mobilize and march for universal health care?

Do we need to invent a campaign to flash mob every town hall, Capitol and one stoplight town across the nation? Peacefully.

Call your member of Congress this morning and ask them to oppose any health care plan without a strong public option.
Call this number and ask to speak with your Representative: [phone]
Over the weekend, Max Baucus, the Senate "Democrat" holding up health care reform for the insurance industry, came out with his health care reform plan. Frankly, it's garbage - no public option, no big reforms.
Baucus's bill actually forces low- to middle-income American to buy "junk" insurance they can't afford to use, amounting to a giant transfer of wealth to the insurance industry.
Real health care reform must include a public option. Anything else is an insurance industry bailout.
With President Obama speaking to Congress tonight, we need to make that message heard loud and clear.
Call your Representative now: [phone]

1. And they might ask where NBC has been in covering the rallies all across US Supporting Obama!

Instead of calling for riots of angry Supporters... What do they want? Rabid Democrats jumping baracades in confrontation with the "Tea Baggers? Good for ratings. But they need to turn the searchlight on their own network.

2. Good point. With the TeaBagNutters foaming at the mouth, non violence is key.

No so good for ratings though, like you say. Feh.
