That is what I just don't get!
I am convinced that most of the fears are unfounded, but the President and his fellow party supporters did a urine-poor job of presenting this much needed reform to the American public.
This is our President's first major domestic misstep and I hope he learns that he MUST become straight forward with the people who elected him.
As for folks getting wee-weed up-- I thought it was a nice way of describing the utter nonsense that has been stirred by GOP operatives. I'm glad to see Americans getting involved in the process, but the origins of the current poo-storm that has engulfed the emotions of so many folks on this issue was established by folks with less than genuine desires.
There's nothing "grass-roots" about getting people angry based off of stuff that you know are fear-mongerring, exaagerations, or even lies!
I don't consider MANIPULATION to be an American virtue!!
Unfortunately, GOP operatives used this method to gin up anger and fear.
Not so different from the tactics of f-khan, J-Jackson, and Sharpton whenever something tragic and race related happened and how they were so successful in getting the emotions riled of the people who listened to them.
Their tactics were disengenious then, the GOP's tactics are disengenious now.
