Rob Reiner jumped in to blame Republicans who are “refusing to make this better,”

"Moderate" democRAT Doug Schoen said exactly the same thing earlier tonight on Hannity's studio audience discussion about ObamaCare. All of the libs in the audience nodded their heads including journalist and Fox News Contributor Judith Miller.

Can someone out there tell me how and why Judith Miller - who appears to support ObamaCare - is a fellow at the conservative (?) Manhattan Institute??

Maybe the Manhattan Institute is no longer conservative?

I don’t think Judith Miller is a conservative.
