Doubly Diabolical
One of the big, unsolved problems in this country is how to provide health care for the uninsured. To its shame, the United States is the only industrialized nation in the world that doesn't provide health care for all its people.
Now that the Democrats have a majority in the House and Senate, some of them, such as Hillary Clinton, have pledged to do something about it.
And just as the right-wing has fraudulently linked evolution to Hitler, some on the right now claim that providing health care to anyone but the rich is nothing more than a diabolical plot to introduce Nazism to the country.
And who, would you guess, is right in the middle of this insane charge? That's right, the Discovery Institute.
