How Health Care Reform Flew the Co-op (OR the Public Option That Isn’t, Part 2) June 10, 2009

But upon further reading and reflection, my surprise faded. I've become used to Progressive Politicians who try to hide their actual motives and eventual outcomes at all costs. After all, if we really knew what they were trying to do to us, we'd never go back to sleep and give them their way, would we?
