The NJDC Takes On The Lying, Deranged, Misbegotten GOP

From the National Jewish Democratic Council -- March 26, 2010:

Dems Defeat GOP Fear-Mongering

Now that President Obama’s health care reform is the law of the land, Democrats around the country can feel proud about our victory over the fear-mongering campaign perpetrated by Conservative activists and GOP leaders. For over a year, activists, pundits, and politicians attempted to lie, obstruct, intimidate, and threaten Democrats into doing nothing about our country’s broken health care system. As NJDC CEO Ira N. Forman discussed in The Hill and NJDC President David A. Harris wrote in Politico, the rhetoric and mischief reached its apex over the weekend during the lead-up to the House vote; however, none of the malicious incidents, nor any other event from the past year, derailed health care reform. Obama and the Democratic Party earned a huge victory on behalf of the American people despite the unfortunate tactics used by conservative activists.
