Rise and Shine --- It's getting scary

Good Morning and welcome to crazy town!

That's right, we've finally gone over the edge. We've finally taken things to a ridiculous level (a level fueled by those who are in search of ratings).
Just yesterday a man showed up with a gun at a healthcare town meeting being held by the President. Another man stood up to shout down Sen. Arlen Specter before even hearing any information.
There are people out there who listen (or read) uninformed opinions and take them as fact. They listen to Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin then believe every word that comes out of their mouths.
Tonight at 6:30 p.m., U.S. Rep. Joe Sestak is holding a healthcare town meeting in Philadelphia. I hope there is enough security to keep him safe.
Listen people, this country needs healthcare reform. We are being held hostage by insurance companies. They keep raising rates. They keep shutting out the doctors. Unless something is done, none of us will be able to afford care.
The bottom line is there is no government plan as yet. There are only ideas. That's the point of discussion. Hash out the ideas, see what works for the most people.
Unfortunately, small-minded people are disrupting that conversation for no reason.
Do your own research, you might learn something. Or, just believe the talking heads:
