Across the nation, the U S Chamber is running frivolous radio ads that call for people to contact their congressperson and ask for tort reform. They set the ad up as a boxing match. Aren’t these the same people that attack lawyers for running ads like this? Aren’t these the people that are funded by the Insurance companies?
Listen to the ad. They want to continue to set the argument up as between the Doctors and the Lawyers. It’s from the Bush/Rove book of attack the lawyers. That strategy has worked well for them to hid their true intentions. The fight has always been a fight between the Insurance companies and those that are injured by negligent practices. A real healthcare bill cuts into the Heath Insurance comapanies profits.
The U S Chamber is lying about the cost savings. They are lying about the goal that they want to achieve. They are just plain lying about the made up support for tort reform. Why in the world shouldn’t the call be for a fair health care system? One that covers people and still protects their constitutional rights? Because, that isn’t what they want.
