This is a very sharp news video about the connections between opponents of US healthcare reform and the "health" industry, including insurance, hospitals, seniors' homes, etc. It's pretty devastating to both big mouth Republicans but also the bought-off weasels known as Blue Dog Democrats. Since the late Sen. Edward Kennedy was perhaps most famous politically for his championing of healthcare reform, this seemed a fitting tribute post.

Nix the corporate contributions to Congress! Congressional action is required to avoid the Supreme Court's decision that, b/c corporations are "persons" under the law, they are also have the right to freedom of speech, and thus to contribute to politicians. This must stop. Are we citizens, or are we merely "consumers"? Check out your representatives' contributors, and write, write, write, telling your congress members to stop it! Thank you.
