Post town hall meeting season isn't pretty. Many Congressional Democrats are futher hardening their position and demanding:

1) That the President come out firmly in favor of the public componet in HR3200 - if not for single payer as a plan not in HR3200.

2) That single payer be added to HR3200. Many have said they will not vote if that is not in the bill.

And the on-going mudslinging - Democrats characterizing ALL screaming, disruptive people at town hall meetings as crazy Republicans - ignoring the buld of the attendees that are cooperative and forgetting that their independent supporters are there as well.

Republicans depicting the President as Hitler are not to be condoned. But it should be pointed out that these are people wh are afraid because Congress and the President have moved the country so far left.

President Obama, whle you are on vacation - I hope you will remember your campaign promise to bring us all together. Remember you characterized your positions on issues as centrist. These are not orders; these are pleas.
