Why Do These Insane Rumors About Health Reform Fly?

I just saw something rather frightening. According the Livescience.com, more than HALF of Americans believe in the health care 'myths'.

Part of the problem here is the fact that they're referred to as 'myths'. No, there aren't 'myths', they're total myths. There are no death panel in any of the bills. This is not a government takeover of health care. This will not gut Medicare. Illegal immigrants will not be covered.

How many times do you have to beat middle America over the head with the logic stick before they actually get it?

  1. Beyond all the "myths" and "rumors" that you so often condemn, there is one stark problem with health care reform: cost.

    Projected costs near 1 Trillion dollars, an addition to the deficit I can't see how this country could afford.

    You can't always get what you want dude. I want a Ferrari, but it doesn't really matter if I can't pay for it, does it?
