Is it better that people are talking about Joe Wilson than Barack Obama?

Is this an easy escape for the media, to keep them from talking about health care reform? Would it have been better if the talking heads were talking more about what the President wanted in his plan, rather than Joe Wilson rudely yelling out "You lie!"? Do you think this makes the Republican Party look bad to other Republicans? Or do most of them agree with Joe Wilson?

1. Real debate on the plan seems the better topic.

2. I'm hearing a lot of talk about health care reform?

This seems to be keeping them ON the topic.

4. Could be?

Thanks for your opinion.

3. "Another Republican F**ked Up!" vs "Obama's Mandates!"

Which would you choose?

5. That's an interesting question really.

Is it better for reform to be talking about policy specifics; or to spread the generalization that democrats actually want to do something and republicans are morons with no self control?
