If our President can do it. we (DU) can do it. [View All]

President Obama has taken the stinger out of this bug bite. We need to do this too.

I am not saying we should EVER go back on our principles of fairness under the law. Or our opposition to racism.

But this argument was circling down the drain. It was getting everybody nowhere. And most importantly, it allowed the MSM and the RW to take over the public's attention and detract from getting the health care reform we so badly need. We were not doing ourselves any favors.

No we have a chance to defuse. We take away the stick the Republicans like to beat us with in the media. The show's over. Time to pack up the lights and the cameras and go home.

Let's get back to work on health care reform and the other issues we care about.
