The GOP Sideshow Craziness

Rachel Maddow sums up the sideshow craziness from the conservative Right regarding health care reform. It's not about the public option, to the Right, it's all about a secret plan to kill old people.

And it's not just the fringe and Rush "dittoheads", it's elected members of Congress spreading the fear.

For example, an attempt to encourage people to make out "living wills" is shamelessly morphed into the government is telling you how to die. Repeat that enough times on right-wing radio, add a few Fox updates, and you have the echo chamber the Private Insurance companies paid for working to slow down proper reform.

The Right has an easy job of making stuff up because their base is so willing to believe it. 8 years of Bush will make you deny just about anything.
