LIBERADIO(!)

While the anti-health care reform crowd gathered at the Bachmann Tea Party Overdrive in Washington yesterday to try and stop progress, and the Congressional Budget office issued a report critical of the Republican health care plan saying that it would reduce the federal deficit by $36 million less than the Democratic plan, only one lone Congressman was illustrating the ethical obligation we have to enact health care reform.

On the House floor this week, Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) read off the estimated number of people represented in Republican congressional districts who will die next year due to a lack of health insurance.

Too bad he didn’t calculate the numbers for Bart Gordon’s district since Congressman Gordon has decided to base his voting decisions not on any kind of shared values like “providing health security for all Tennesseans” or “Tennesseans shouldn’t have to risk their homes, life-savings, and the ideal that is the American Dream because of mounting medical bills brought on by being denied life-saving treatment by bottom-line focused insurance companies” but on the lies spread by the talk radio wing of the Republican party.
