rmgregory, when the national dialog becomes about saying that democrats are going to use euthanasia in a government takeover of the health care system, what are you going to say, "Well, it's a shame. Both sides are equally wrong" ? Is your "both side do it" mindset just an excuse for you to continue in a life of apathy while the system goes down the tubes and people suffer because nothing gets done?
What are you going to tell people getting screwed over by health insurance companies and going bankrupt? Seriously, what's your problem? Are you trying to hide your laziness under a veneer of moral preening?

And a NY Times columnist presented a list of "whoppers" on PBS tonight. Neither side has the high road or even a viable plan, which is sad but expected.
Yes, it's time for a weekend, complete with real southern green beans [aka snaps] and potatoes http://tinyurl.com/nf2kof .
Thanks for doing great work throughout the week!
