I was watching tv last night, and watched as Rachel Maddow on The Rachael Maddow Show last night quoted a Harris Poll showing:

67 percent of Republicans believe that Obama is a socialist.
57 percent of Republicans believe that Obama is a Muslim
45 percent of Republicans agree with the Birthers in their belief that Obama was "Not born in the United States and so is not eligible to be President"
38 percent of Republicans say that Obama is "Doing many of the things that Hitler did"
And last but not least 24 percent of Republicans say that Obama "may be the Antichrist."

My wife received a fax yesterday from Georgia Republican Congressman Tom Price. It was a fake press release informing us that she had been selected as one of  “OVER 100 CONCERNED PHYSICIANS TO ADVISE MEMBERS OF CONGRESS ON HEALTHCARE REFORM” (in all caps). Oh joy!   Her name was even included in the fake press release (that contained a total of only 50 “Physician” names, by the way).
Being suspicious, I started goggling the other docs…I found a few that were loyal donators to the Republican Party – no surprise there – but a surprising number I couldn’t find anything about at all…hmmmm….
This morning, I was searching for a few more of the “Concerned Physicians” and ran across this entry on thinkProgress: http://thinkprogress.org/2009/07/31/price-nrcc-physicians/
This is exactly what happened to my wife!!! The really amusing thing is the real “target doc’s” name is in the same position on each of the faxed letters....
LAME!

I haven’t done a topic post in a while, and admittedly this isn’t local, but…What does everyone think about this “Single Payer” healthcare stuff?

Yup – sure enough, yesterday afternoon, a 7 year old power supply decided to give up the ghost, and took the little linux computer in the basesment's motherboard, memory, and at least one of the hard drives with it.
gen What do you think of the new site?
