Scott I too love debate, but I don't think people should be allowed to lie on the public airways and TV. Or knowingly mislead or misrepresent They should be sued for libel. My big beef with the Beckster is his wrong representation of Progressives and the Progressive Era. The vote for women, direct election of US senators, initiative, referendum and recall were all progressive reforms but he equates me and others with Mao. Of course he is a deranged fool on all issues and yes he affects people with Parkinson's by trashing health care reform. He and others like him are major obstacles to our getting better treatments and cure.
