DeMint Falsely Claims Americans Don't Want More Government Involvement In Health Care
Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) says "Americans don't want more government in health care"--which is true if you define 'Americans' as the 28-or-so percent of the population who don't want more government in health care.
Perhaps the Americans who don't want more government involvement in health care are the very same Americans who fled forced unionization in Pennsylvania and sought refuge in the South. On the policy question of government involvement in health care, there are a number of problems with DeMint's statement. But the public seems to have caught on to them.

More lies from the GOP? Well, at least they're consistent. It's now their tactic of first, last, and every resort.
I wonder if that has anything to do with the increasing majority of Americans who think the Republicans are full of crap.

Apparently, you all have forgotten the definition of who Americans are.
Real America is defined as those who are against health care reform and is, therefore, 100% behind the good Senator for South Carolina.
