Shame on President Obama not pushing for single payer.

The Republicans have the courage of their convictions.

The Democrats don’t.

The AFL-CIO acts like Democrats in the Senate — their constuencies support single payer, but they don’t push for it.

And the SEIU is still an obstacle to single payer.

Does it make any sense at all?

Ask that a single payer advocate testify before the Senate Finance Committee, and the chair, Max Baucus (D-Montana), has you handcuffed, arrested, hauled off in a paddy wagon, and charged with criminal “disruption of Congress.”
