Single payer advocates wanted Dean to stop confusing the issues by saying SP is not off the table when they were trying to get a seat at the Baucus table or promoting the public option as being like Medicare when it is not.

People do not need to be confused about what is being offered as a public option, I listened carefully to what Dean said after that night on the Ed Show and it was disappointing.

Single payer groups accuse Dean of having them arrested in Portland.

There is nothing in this video or the links that suggests single payer advocates accused Dean of having them arrested, so why change the title of the video to wrongly accuse single payer advocates???


And this thread...

The Single Payer Action group has a new project. Discredit Dean.

My reply in the above thread...

Why are people trying to discredit single-payer advocates? ...

The quotes that Dr. Himmelstein was objecting to are not in the OP, after months of Dean confusing the issues and misrepresenting the two systems, Dr. Himmelstein had enough. Dean has been speaking all over the country and has had many appearances in the media so there are probably many other examples.

Now the organization and doctors who are the biggest threats to the insurance companies are the bad guys because they called Dean out on his misuse of the terms...
