Health Care Oppo/Radical Right Conflation Become Dem Party Line

It's no longer just liberal bloggers that are immature enough to make lude comments and try to write off legitimate anger among the middle and working class right as a "radicalism" comparable to birthers. Here is Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL), the Majority Whip and a good friend of the President's:

"These town hall meetings have been orchestrated by the tea baggers and the birthers to just be a free-for-alls, make a lot of noise, go on YouTube and show discord," said Durbin. "I mean that is what they are determined to do. But that is not going to accomplish what we need to accomplish: real health care reform."

Also, here (http://politics.theatlantic.com/2009/08/it_is_easy_and_comfortable_1.php) is a great article with a LIBERAL criticizing the way that the left is treating this movement

There is a logical error in assuming that because a line of argument is associated with something you don't like -- like, say, conservative activists, --that anyone who uses that line of argument has less pure motives than you do, or is a yahoo, or is being bamboozled. Sometimes, this is the case. Sometimes it isn't. Association itself is not proof of the absence of anything real.
