The real obstacle to health care reform is... Liberals!
Primary tabs
Disappointed with the Party's platform, the PDA and a broad coalition of progressive democrats were able to force the party to adopt language guaranteeing healthcare for all. It's not perfect, they say but it's better than it was and the balance is tipping. Find out how they did it and what it means with Norman Solomon, an Obama delegate and the author of Made Love, Got War, Michael Lighty of the California Nurses Association, and Donna Smith. And even though big pharma may be hanging banners from the rafters here in Denver they are not the biggest obstacle to healthcare reform. According to Lighty, the real obstacle is the liberal establishment that refuses to get behind HR676 and support a sane policy that provides healthcare for all Americans.
