Reasoned discourse, with no villification whatsoever

More of that new civility, that end to bickering and squabbling:

“It’s smoke and mirrors,” Mr. Obama said. “It’s bogus. And it’s all too familiar. Every time we get close to passing reform, the insurance companies produce these phony studies as a prescription and say, ‘Take one of these, and call us in a decade.’ Well, not this time.”

Rather than trying to curb costs and help patients, he said, the industry is busy “figuring out how to avoid covering people.”

Thank God we no longer have George W. Bush, who did things by scaring and intimidating people...
