Yelling at Reform

As orchestrated efforts continue to disrupt civil discourse on the future of health insurance coverage in America, Sen. Bernie Sanders spoke with MSNBC's Keith Olbermann Monday night about these tactics. Sanders talked about the staged, anti-health insurance reform protests taking place at town meetings across the country. “The fact of the matter is that these people talk about freedom, and what they are doing is trying to disrupt town meetings, which is the absolute opposite of what freedom of discussion is about. The reason for that is that they are afraid to debate the real issues, the fact that we have a disintegrating health care system…” Sen. Sanders frequently holds town meetings across the State of Vermont. He allows Vermonters of all political persuasions and opinions to ask questions and make statements.
