What real reform looks like

Maybe, like me, you've received an e-mail from barackobama.com urging you to attend an Oct. 20 event designed to get folks to call their congress critters in support of the president's health care plan.

Maybe, like me, you've been concerned that the president doesn't really have a health care plan, but often seems eager to pass any kind of legislation that says "health care reform," just so he can claim it as an accomplishment.

If so, I think you will want to read a great post by John Nichols over at thenation.com, who says Here's What to Tell Obama, Congress About Real Reform.
