    Vitriol and name calling don’t add much to the health-care debate. I’ve found McCaughey’s research and input to be right on.

    Wouldn’t it be NUTS if health-care providers, drug companies and insurance companies paid PR and Strategy companies to monitor the internet and post on every article related to health care in order to greatly distort the tone of the debate?

    I know, I know. That’s just silly, right?

    Betsy McCaughey is a disgrace to her profession, though at this point it’s arguable what that profession is. Perhaps the oldest profession – in the political sense, not the literal. Her “research” is not worthy of the term. Many Republicans in the past have lobbied for “end-of-life” panels to help seniors and families set up wills. Rush Limbaugh read ads for end-of-life counseling on his radio show.

    Do they think we’re stupid? Do they think if they say the same things over and over and over again and cite each other as proof then we will actually believe what they say?
