Hit 'em again, Dean.
The Dems sold out to corporatism and won't admit it. They'd rather try to discredit those who actually want to reform the system.

Hardball was a nasty setup. It was funny watching Tweety try to "cool the mark" afterward with Chuck Todd, too. By giving hundreds of billions of dollars to private insurance, you see, we're paving the way for them to come back years down the line and "fix" it...

But they forget that we're their support. Well, I say give them the fight they're asking for.

If they don't want to fight the Liebermans and want to fight us, let's see what happens in 2010.

Personally, I don't think they're going to be very happy.

In the meantime, keep going. Call them out. They went out of their way to make sure we all become slaves to the health insurance corporations, both with our premiums and our tax dollars. They dug us further into the broken system. They all sold out- especially the Obama Administration.

1. Dean always was our real hope. And Kucinich too.
Back to the drawing boards for those of us who are progressives! We fought Bush and we can fight the current WH corporate whores.

3. If we give the insurance companies billions more.
They will spend millions more on lobbyists and Congress people.

Sadly, this may be part of the plan too.

4. On the Ed Show right now...
he is spelling it all out.

Obama sold us out. The curtain has been pulled back for everyone to see.
