If Democrats were Republicans they would take the number of deaths that could be attributed to lack of health care, double it, shout it from the roof tops, put it in every sound bite, and relentlessly ask the opposition party how many American lives are you willing to sacrifice to block health care reform. (Probably with a "you commie bastard" thrown in on top.)
The Democrats will instead duck their heads shuffle their feet and shyly exclaim:
"made poopies"
Of course, there are exceptions, but the Democratic leadership and many of its media 'defenders' are aptly described.
