We have been through this before but it is worth repeating. True there are facts. But there are also legitimate emotional responses to facts. Your position seems to suggest there can or should be only one response to a given set of facts. The reality is that this is not true, never has been true and never will be true. People respond differently even when presented with the same facts. Why do you ignore this? Why do you imply that those who don't agree with you don't know the facts or don't care about facts?
Health care (health, life death, quality of life, care of loved one's) is the most emotional issue people deal with. I would argue on a national level this is even going to be more emotionally charged than war - war is often removed from most people health care issues are not, they affect us all.

In my view this is a legitimate issue and is clearly on topic and is in-part the reason for some of the hostility in meetings. Is your giving up mean that you have no response, or what? Do you just want to "take your ball and go home", since issues are being brought up that you don't like? What is the deal with the sanctimony, at least the sanctimony I perceive in you comment?
I continually don't understand liberals. On one hand we get the talk about facts but then legitimate issues or questions go ignored. One day perhaps some of you will surprise me.
