Left rebels against health reform - - POLITICO.com
....even the lunatic left wing fringe is trashing the healthcare bill, of course, for all the wrong reasons.... Kill it! Kill it! shoot it in the head! whatever you have to do.

In a stunning reversal of fortune for President Barack Obama, top progressives are attacking the health-reform plan moving through the Senate as hollow, unsupportable and a sellout to corporate interests.
Republicans, after plotting for months to sink the signature legislation of Obamas first year, suddenly think that Democrats might wind up doing it for them.
Most dangerously for White House chances of assembling 60 Senate votes, former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean launched a third day of attacks on the emerging bill, arguing in a Washington Post op-ed that it meets none of his benchmarks for real reform.
[A]s it stands, this bill would do more harm than good to the future of America, Dean wrote, then took to the airwaves to amplify his case.
Ed Schultz, an influential liberal radio host, declared on his Ed Show on MSNBC: The base is restless. They are wandering in the wilderness, Mr. President. They want to know, where are you? Right now, Mr. President, your base thinks youre nothing but a sellout a corporate sellout, out that. The only people who like this current bill right now, Mr. President, is the insurance industry they get a bunch of new customers.
