Well, before anyone gets their pantyhose in a
bunch............they're not advocating a side. They're singing
about the issue of health care, that there are private and public
options.......and that it's a problem that needs to be addressed
and one that need bi-partisan effort. It's not a political
statement, it's an observational song about a genuine problem in
America.
I think they should push the healthcare thing through raise
taxes on everyone even if they aren't working to pay for it and
while everyone is on unemployment they can all have great
healthcare! We don't need no stinkin jobs.
A while back here they tried to raise money by trying to tax a
persons stock holdings like property every year wether you sold the
stock or not. I refused to fill out the form when they sent it
out.
Not sure how they could possibly get the healthcare thing
through without paying for it, it was obvious with todays bond
auction that other countries aren't going to pay for our
overspending any more.

Uh, yes they are clearly advocating a side. The song strongly
supports, in no uncertain terms, the opinion that yet more
gov't intervention needs to happen in American private enterprise,
something most Americans strongly oppose, not sure how you
missed that aspect of the performance? Now despite some nice
jingles, trying to mask the partisan message of the
teacher/songwriter, about both sides need to work together for
healthcare reform , that video was clearly praising Obama and
supports the left's healthcare overhaul...not taking any side here
about agreeing or not with healthcare reform, just pointing out,
once again, the
indoctrination of political views on kids in schools, which is
obscene, whether done buy pro Dubya (2%) or pro Obama (98%)
teachers, and especially where it was performed...the very unbiased
and highly credible news organization CNN. Before people start
screaming about politics, this was OT and after hours and has
nothing to do with politics and has everything to do with raising
awaresness of the unprecedented political intrusion in our kids
schools. If FOX News did this with our kids and an anti
Obama healthcare song I would post that with the same disgust.

Interesting spin you put on it. But you are too late. My panties were already in a wad. Sounded pretty partisan to me.
