The F Word: Learning From Health Care Reform
March 23, 2010So this is what I learned from the last weekend of the health care reform debate.Health Care, Gary Younge, and Protesting Iraq
March 22, 2010The House of Representatives, under Speaker Nancy Pelosi, passed historic health care reform late Sunday night. That's a fact. Also a fact is that the bill is far from perfect, and legislators from all sides will be working to shape the bill more to their liking. Progressives regret the lack of a public option, let alone single payer, and the use of women's reproductive choice as a political football in the negotiations--Obama was forced into an executive order reaffirming the Hyde Amendment's commitment not to use federal dollars for abortions.David Corn: Enhancing the Debate

Experienced Washington reporters and political amateurs alike were riveted, passing along information on Twitter and other social networks.Iran's Movement, David Corn and Sex Ed in Utah
