Col, I just saw a Fox report showing Cornyn (sp?) from Texas.  As it turns out, he says they've been inviting the Democrats all along to help, and they refuse to show up!  I continue to be amazed at how the media purposefully divides us.  I want lies called lies, and I want bipartisan efforts applauded and not shamed.  The conspiracy theorist in me feels we are being intentionally shepherded into corners, keeping a large central majority from coalescing for real change -- for example, bringing the true villains in health care, the insurances, away from their kleptocratic oligopoly.
