Remember the right wing shitstorm after "You can keep your doctor"?

So there's bound to be a similar right wing shitstorm after "We're gonna have insurance for everybody," amirite?

Yeah, no, I ain't holding my breath.

Helps that they own most of the media.

Helps that they're completely willing to lie if it'll sound better than the truth.

But the left is just too damned polite. That helps the right as well.

Any real Democrats should be honing their true messages for sound-bite friendliness and SHOUTING, JUST GOD DAMNED SHOUTING THEIR POINTS at every opportunity.
