The Average Man

Truth is an Absolute Defense

Freshman Florida congressman Alan Grayson went to the House floor yesterday and described the Republican health care plan as "don't get sick, and if you do, die quickly." The Average Man promptly went to his website and gave him twenty bucks. Apparently I wasn't the only one, as he raised $100K yesterday!

Now, even better -- he goes on the Wolf Blitzer show and Does. Not. Back. Down!



YEAH!!!

Now let's see if some other Dems will learn a lesson.

Now, THAT is a Democrat with a spine!

And he's totally right: Republicans want exactly what the insurance companies want ... to only cover healthy people and let the poor fend for themselves.

I especially appreciate lesson #2 from the AlerNet link: Grayson's clownish performance with posters on the House floor allowed him to frame the substance debate.
