If there was any doubt that those who are advocating NOT passing the bill in its current form is a minority opinion among "hard-core liberals," a new MoveOn poll released to Greg Sargent at The Plumline shows even more evidence:

As Kos noted on the front page, the trend is moving in our direction. While this may be hard to comprehend for the beltway blowhards like Charlie Cook who rely on drama for their relevance, the numbers speak for themselves. Obama rallying the troops with powerful speeches on HCR, along with Republican getting called out on their obstructionism, lies and over all nihilism are generating a positive trend in the Obama's direction:

The Politico has never been shy to show its conservative bias and use of Republican frames in their articles, but the latest post from the infamous Patrick "mini-me Mitch McConnell" O'Connor shows the beltway boys are pulling no stops to mainstream Republican frames.

Politico says we're ramming it through

Once again the AP does a hatchet job with the help of resident psychic and GOP spinmeister extraordinaire RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR.

Obama realistically looking for a slice.

Andy Stern announced today that the Senate bill should be passed, with the proviso that the more egregious taxing issues be modified on a parallel track via budget reconciliation:

While the media sensationalizes every beat in the health care reform process and seeks to frame the debate on Republican terms, the ConservaDems are more than happy to join in and add poison pills to the mix.

Now I can understand the media failing to report the full facts (e.g., the truth that the CBO director's comments on "savings" were only based on a partial analysis of the bill), because all the media is looking for is a good story (while many sit back with their gold-plated health insurance plans). Facts aren't important to them.

Let me start this off by saying I like Allison Stewart and love Keith Olberman. It's the only show I can go to that actually talks about important issues like the FISA immunity crap and Bush's Neanderthal torture chamber administration.

The Washington Post has once again decided to take it upon itself to leave out important facts and totally mischaracterize its latest polling on Congress. According to the article, they inserted this gem:

If you want a behind the scenes look into the Carville Dean Rahm feud this past election, Ryan Lizza of GQ has a juicy little article with morsels of beltway bullshit and behind-the-scene nuggets.

The death of Ann Richards really hit home with me. A great lady with a fire and passion that only comes around, if we're lucky, a few times a generation.

I was perusing the web and I came across this list from Ann (that was likely written during the Clinton years) which is so so true and still very relevant today.

And it further shows what a smart, special lady she was that will be sorely missed: Read More
