Please "Digg" up these questions for Obama's healthcare town hall
here is one:

"Mr. President, I have been watching this debate over health care reform and with all due respect,it is troublesome. The lobbyists in and out of Congress are fighting for the status quo to remain intact. Mr. President you ran on change and a public option included in Health Care reform IS real change. It would lower and control rising costs, focus on efficiency and actually lead us towards Universal Coverage. All the facts and the data show that a VIABLE AND ROBUST Medicare-like public option will lead to all three objectives listed earlier and recent polls have shown a range from 72%to83% of Americans supporting such an option being included in a Heath Reform bill. So Mr.President I ask you, will you fight for the American people and tell Congress you will not allow a bill without a Public Option to come to your desk? Will you fight for something a BIPARTISAN majority of Americans approve of? Will you fight for US and tell congress the status quo must not prevail, a public option and REAL reform is what you will pass?"

right now, there are over 500 comments on the thread, many against a public option.

Thanks
