While GOP crazies lay siege to town halls across America, some in Washington are starting to wave the white flag on health care reform. We can't let that happen. We need medicine, not mobs; doctors not death threats. That's why we produced our latest video.

I can enclose the video in a link, but prefer not to - don't want them to get the extra hits.
If you see something, say something.
Use the twitter hashtag #GOPcrazy to aggregate images, stories and video of outlandish right-wing antics. We'll be monitoring the feed, and in our next video using the content you flag to push back on the crazies.
The mob scare tactic isn't new.
Generations of right-wingers and know-nothings have used it to foil reform. In 2000, an 'angry mob of ordinary Floridians' forced a stop to the Miami-Dade recount and helped win George Bush his 1st 4 years of disastrous presidency.
In 2004, the 'Swiftboat Veterans for Truth' led the right-wing vitriol towards John Kerry, winning Bush yet another 4 years of mayhem.
Now, the mob is back, and after bringing us 8 years of George W. Bush, they're trying to hijack Barack Obama's presidency too. But this time, the good guys know what's up, and we're doing something about it.
For too long the right has used the mob to distract, delay and deter progressives from tackling the most important issues we face as a nation. What we're seeing now on health care is no exception - in fact, it's the rule.
If you see spectacular right-wing mob activity, twitter it with the hashtag #GOPcrazy.
This time, let's help the crazies dig their own grave.
Rationally yours,

I am sure they would not mind a little extra bandwidth.
For video editors with extra time: I have a copy of the video, please freepmail me to pass along a copy
this is an opportunity to provide them with all sorts of images from WTO, G-8, anti-Bush protests - fill the bin, sort-o-speak
They have GOP Derangement Syndrome.
“We need medicine, not mobs; doctors not death threats”
What about when the doctors threaten to let you die at the government’s insistance?
