"President Obama held a conference call with more than two-dozen House progressives Friday about health care reform -- and their adamant demand for the public option."

And so much for 'Patriotic Dissent.'
Article Here"I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration.""
New York Times Distorts Reality to Fit Fantasy
Here's the short version.
Support for healthcare reform is/was falling. The New York Times could not accept that. So they fudged reality.
Their June 12-16 poll:
"72 percent of respondents favored the creation of a government health-insurance plan that would compete with private insurers."
HOWEVER...
"Out of 895 respondents, 24 percent were Republicans, 38 percent Democrats, and 38 percent were independents, according to a June 20 release from CBS News. While the release says the sampling was conducted at random, those numbers are significantly below the 32.6 percent who identify themselves as Republican according to a May survey from the nonpartisan Rasmussen Reports.
Similarly, the Times/CBS poll said 48 percent of respondents had voted for Obama, versus 25 percent for McCain, a nearly two-to-one advantage for Obama supporters.
Had those results been reflected in the November presidential election, Obama would have garnered 66 percent of the vote to McCain’s 34 percent, Conway, president & CEO of “the polling company,” told CNSNews.com.
“Was the vote 66-34? You tell me,” Conway said.
In 2008, Obama won 53 percent of the vote, McCain won 46 percent."
When reality doesn't agree with your fantasy world, I suppose the typical liberal viewpoint is ignore it and create your own. And you know what the best part is? This was back in June. Support for Healthcare Reform is far lower than anyone at the Times could ever had dreamed up, even in a nightmare.

Promoting Racism, A Liberal Specialty
"...But this leads me to MSNBC, where on Tuesday Contessa Brewer...filed a report about health care protesters showing up armed. In it, she used tape of that same black man carrying an assault rifle and said “there are questions about whether this has racial overtones….white people showing up with guns.”
Of course, like I said – the guy was black. But you never would have known. Because MSNBC has strategically edited the tape, so the race of the armed dude wasn’t revealed. You just assumed he was white, thanks to Contessa."
Click here for theamazing horrendously misleading and edited videos.
And MSNBC's response?
“Contessa was speaking generally and not about that specific person with the automatic weapon.”
No proof. No examples. Not even a reason for editing the video to attempt to alter reality.

How About These Distruptions At Town Hall Events?
"The current town hall outbursts are coming from tens of thousands of folks at events at which they are supposed to exercise their First Amendment rights and speak out. The manufactured disruptions organized by Code Pink and their radical-left comrades were attempts by a handful of people to interrupt, even stop, lawful gatherings and to deny thousands of other folks those same First Amendment rights."

ABC, NBC Refuse To Air Anti-Universal Healthcare Ad
"The refusal by ABC and NBC to run a national ad critical of President Obama's health care reform plan is raising questions from the group behind the spot -- particularly in light of ABC's health care special aired in prime time last June and hosted at the White House."
