I've noticed that even some of the marginally left-leaning (although generally not very informed) people that I talk to once in a while are scared of Obama's health care plan. Ask them for specifics as to why they are scared and most will spout wildly inaccurate information or nothing at all. Still, I'm not very hopeful. It is starting to feel like the 90s all over again only without the soothing sounds of Nirvana and Alice in Chains to help us through these dark times.

My god do we need good music again.....

New Alice in Chains and Pearl Jam albums will be released this September. It is 1994 again, my friend.

Alice In Chains does not exist without Layne Staley, imho.

Let's agree on a compromise.

Free dental for all and call it a day?

And make it easier for dentists to force their evil torturous procedures on people?
These people live to cause pain!

No. Just commenting on the usual "our opponents are resorting to extreme scare tactics to win" kind of argument. Why is it that whenever people start disagreeing with Democrats lately it's due to some "far right wing plot" and not just people getting cold feet about ideas?
Don't worry, I was making these kind of observations whenever Bush was president too (with Republicans almost unamiously defending everything he did and blaming everything on some evil liberal plot).
