1. Villians, liars and conspiracy oh my!, Villians, liars and conspiracy , oh my!

Somehow the word "entertaining" did not enter my realm of thought in regards to the health care debate. In my opinion more like: nauseating,bothersome, disturbing, horrifying, offensive,repulsive, revolting, sickening....you get the picture
