The civil rights leader and widow of Martin Luther King Junior says homeland security ought to be "more about providing health care for every citizen

How would that work? Health care is now homeland security?

The mask is off. The once noble civil rights movement is now exposed as being nothing more than just another arm of international marxism.

Dead people do not need healthcare Mrs King. And I would love a better plan than managed care but not at the expense of national security.

It's a new rhetorical form that's being rolled out. The tactic is to say "we're for security and safety for America," and then you say that means the security of the health care system, and assuring the safety of Social Security, blah blah blah. It's designed to make it sound like they agree with Bush, while turning the conversation to their attack points. I first noticed it coming from Nancy Pelosi. It was no doubt crafted by the party spinmeisters to try to give them some cover after the election debacle.
