I am so proud to have Senator Jeff Merkley as my junior Senator from Oregon. He was a fighter in the Legislature here in Oregon.
Now he is a scrappy Senator taking on the right-wing noise machine right ON THE SENATE FLOOR.
Watch this 3 minute video courtesy of Blue Oregon:
Merkley destroys Mitch McConnell, whose very words on the floor were taken from Frank Luntz's talking points distributed to all Republicans:
HOW TO KILL HEALTH CARE
Talking Point #5: Canadian health care is Government Takeover
Watch the video:
you will see the bankruptcy of the opposition to responsible health care in America;
and you will see a great Senator in the making.
