The media is inundating us with stories related to healthcare reform and I am of firm belief that there are agendas being forced upon us by special interest groups on all sides, just look at the recent spate of town hall meetings. There is little, if any, discussion of substance happening and yet, they make for good sound bites by those “bubble headed bleached blondes” on the evening news. Wanna get on national television? Simply show up at a town hall meeting and disrupt the process by either yelling at the Congressman holding the meeting, ask a irrational question using inflammatory words such as “Nazi” or “Socialist”, or simply shout over the speaker so that his or her response or point can not be heard by the rest of the people attending. Within 24 hours, you too can be on Fox News.
I would like to think we are better than that.
