The Editorial Board of the Chicago Tribune never ceases to disappoint. Here's their latest attempt at delaying universal healthcare -- complete with warmed-over talking points circa 1993. Nothing learned, nothing remembered.
The column goes everywhere from denying that this is an urgent problem to warning that they're going to take away your private insurance.
Here's my email to them:
Talk about "facts and fibs", you completely misconstrue the President's message about health-care. It is a problem that affects the long term health of our economy, not the more short-term economic "recovery".
Your opinion piece ends with a few words of wisdom. Here's some words most people in the city of Chicago would agree with: You don't go to a witch-doctor for a diagnosis on what ails you. You don't go to the Chicago Tribune for advice on health care policy.
You're just not licensed to practice in this area.
Sincerely,
LEO
