Congressman Gets Standing Ovation for Opposing Single-Payer

by Stephan Tawney on August 25, 2009

Blue Dog Democrats take note: While a few members of the audience approve of a single-payer health care system, the overwhelming majority rise up for a standing ovation when Rep. Spencer Bachus (R-AL) reiterates his staunch opposition to socialized health care.

Also take note of the respect Bachus shows for the opposing view. That’s in stark contrast to the rhetoric from Nancy Pelosi about her opponents carrying Swastikas and Brian Baird calling his opponents “brown shirts”. The difference is staggering.
